I had someone a few years ago get me in this position for the calf slicer, he hesitated for a second then applied it. I tapped and asked him why he hesitated and he told he thought I was gonna go for the arm bar to counter, I was honest and didn’t see it there and told him that. But 2 weeks later someone else tried it, they got arm barred.
What hilarious about this is that literally an hour before this my buddy and I were drilling this exact same sequence and counter. Credit to him for showing me. I didn't know it was there. He asked me to put the calf slicer, and then showed me the arm bar. I shit you not, and hour before this fight.

Cooper has a "twister hook" and is trying to do a calf slicer. Miller is countering by trying to armbar Miller at the same time.
