Cooper in full guard, throwing the ground and pound. No damage this time.
Cooper won't allow Sho to sweep him here.
Sho has thrown up a leg looking for a triangle. Cooper doesn't defend quickly enough and Sho has managed to lock this one up! Can Cooper escape?! NO! He's tapping out! Damn, that was a quick submission - congrats to Sho on a fantastic submission victory.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:56 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Taka Sho!
