ARLINGTON, Texas – Even after Ray Cooper III missed weight for his welterweight PFL season opener, very few were counting on Carlos Leal to beat him. Cooper (24-8-1) came in with back-to-back PFL welterweight titles, and Leal (17-3) was a short-notice replacement. But Leal largely dominated Cooper with scores of 30-26, 30-27 and 29-27 to burst onto the PFL scene. “I wanted to come in and have a quick night out with him, but we’re talking about the two-time champion. This is no easy task for anyone. I’m just happy with my performance,” Leal said after his win in Arlington, Texas.
