Round 1: Good teep from Birchak, then a Superman punch into a clinch takedown. Entwistle using butterfly guard. Birchak stands over him and Entwistle latches onto a heel hook. Birchark rolling through, dropping hammerfists and punches when he can. He runs out of room to roll and Entwistle cranks, Birchak resists for a bit, but soon taps frantically, holding his leg in pain.

Final result: Entwistle def. Birchak by submission (heel hook)
