PFL 3 results: Ray Cooper III rolls over Jake Shields in main event
On Thursday night, Ray Cooper III came out for his PFL 3 main event against Jake Shields as if ... well, as if Shields had beaten up his dad.
As it turns out, Shields did in fact beat Cooper’s father, Ray Cooper Jr., in a 2004 bout in Hawaii. Fifteen years later, Cooper got family revenge with a dominant performance in a second-round TKO win over the former Strikeforce champion.
The time of the stoppage in the welterweight main event on the campus of George Washington University in Washington, D.C., was 2:09.
