Butcherlow misses with the head strike.
#TD#
Butcherlow jumps guard and drags Oxlong to the mat. He's obviously going to be looking for submissions off his back.
Oxlong should think about turning a few of those tyres round his middle into muscle if he wants people to take him seriously as an athlete.
Butcherlow avoiding any damage from the ground and pound.
Oxlong wants to stand and escape but instead Butcherlow has hit a sweep and he's now on top in guard. #REVR#
Oxlong can't do much from the bottom at the moment, as Butcherlow controls the pace.#SUB#
Butcherlow drops back for a leg here. A bit of a high risk move... He's looking for a kneebar by the looks of things. Now both of them are looking for submissions. Butcherlow seems to have locked his on tight now - Oxlong screams in pain and taps out furiously! It certainly was a high risk move but it's paid off for Butcherlow, as he picks up the win!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:52 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kneebar). Cal Butcherlow!
