Ray Cooper III featured in episode of PFL’s ‘Run it Back’ series

Mixed martial arts action is on hiatus during the coronavirus pandemic, but the PFL will help fill the void with its “Run it Back” series.

“Run it Back” features PFL fighters looking back on their million-dollar championship victories. The second episode – which streams live Thursday night at 8 p.m. ET on the promotion’s YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram channels – will feature reigning welterweight champ Ray Cooper III.

After falling short in the 2018 final, Cooper found redemption in 2020 by defeating David Michaud by second-round TKO to claim the title and $1 million. Cooper will look back on his memorable season with PFL play-by play announcer Sean O’Connell.

New episodes of “Run it Back” will air each Thursday through May 11. Future featured fighters are Sean O’Connell (April 16), Emiliano Sordi (April 23), David Michaud (April 30), Natan Schulte (May 7), and Lance Palmer (May 14).

You can watch a teaser clip from Cooper’s episode in the video above.
