Ray Cooper III Dominates Rory MacDonald, PFL 2021 Playoffs Sets Two Finals

Two 2021 Professional Fighters League finals are now set after tonight's PFL 7 event.

The main event saw PFL's prized signee Rory MacDonald go up against promotional mainstay and 2019 welterweight division winner Ray Cooper III. With a spot in the finals on the line, MacDonald (22-8-1) came out looking to grapple. However, it was Cooper III (23-7-1) that wound up taking down "Red King" and locking in an arm-triangle choke before the round expired. The second and third round was more of the same as MacDonald had nothing for Cooper III's wrestling.
