We recap the Lightweight Title where Ethan Crelinsten won a strong decision over Nathan Orchard with a phenomenal mount game and smother attempts. We recap Dinu Bucalet close decision over Ollie Webb, and the leg lock attack in the Eoghan O’Flanagan vs Hunter Colvin match that Eoghan took by decision.  We talk about the somewhat controversial submission win for Jason Rau over Matty Holmes by an Armbar, and possible tap or verbal tap, and talk about Rau passing and triangle transition game. In the Keith Krikorian vs Tom Halpin we talk about the Rear Naked Choke finish after a great pass from Keith after countering a front headlock, and then passing straight to the back after a great re-guard from Halpin.  We also briefly discuss Martina Zola decision win over Rosie Clarke.
