Kit Cope chosen for second "MTV True Life" show
John Morgan, MMAjunkie.com Jun 1, 3:33 pm EDT
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - With MTV film crews on hand to document the final scenes
of "True Life: I'm an MMA Fighter," documentary subject and relative MMA
newcomer Kit Cope (2-4) took another big step toward being just that.
In the main event of "WFC: Lockdown," the former UFC fighter submitted opponent
Dave Cochran (14-18) with a triangle choke at three minutes and 14 seconds of
the first round.
MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) was among the approximately 1,200 attendees who
attended the eight-fight event at the Tropicana Atlantic City Casino and Resort.
With UFC veteran and new training partner Nate Diaz in his corner, Cope pressed
the action early. After a straight right staggered Cochran, Cope moved in quickly
and secured a solid Thai plumb while pushing Cochran's back to the cage. Cope's
world champion Muay Thai pedigree was evident as the 31-year-old landed several
devastating knees and elbows to Cochran's midsection and face.
Obviously overmatched in the position, Cochran was able to wrestle free from the
clinch, but a slip by the California native allowed Cope to take the fight to
the ground-a place where Cope would seemingly be out of his element.
After a brief scramble allowed Cochran to gain top position, Cope settled quickly
into guard. The Las Vegas native then slowly inched his guard higher as he
attempted a triangle choke. While the submission was applied properly, it was not
without great struggle to lock it in, and it was not applied with any real degree
of speed.
Eventually, however, with Diaz yelling out orders just a few feet away, Cope was
finally able to secure the hold and force the tap-out.
"It was awesome to be a part of the WFC (World Fighting Championships)," Cope said.
"It's a really fast-growing organization. All the guys in charge definitely know
what they're doing, and they're going in a great direction."
Cope said he also plans to fight again in the organization, and he had a message
for potential opponents.
"I really don't care who I fight next," Cope said. "I just had to shake that ring
rust off... I don't care who's in front of me. I'll slice them up and choke them
out."
In 2004 Cope was featured in the MTV "True Life" documentary "I'm a Muay Thai
Fighter." Of the nearly 150 total episodes in the series' history, Cope's has
been the most popular-and it still remains in regular rotation on the cable channel.
A film crew from MTV attended Friday's event to film Cope's main-event bout as
part of the follow-up episode, "True Life: I'm an MMA Fighter." The documentary
debuts in July.
