Brett McDermott vs. Dave Graham LHW NSAC Title
Graham came out and delivered a vicious high kick to the head which knocked McDermott to his knees and runs in for the finish but McDermott recovered quickly and got back to his feet.

Dave Toole vs. Anthony Dilworth LW NSAC Title:
Toole managed to get an early takedown once the fight started, but Dilworth quickly got back to his feet. After both guys landed a few good punches in the middle of the cage, Toole got another takedown and worked on his opponent on the mat. Again, both guys got back to their feet and Toole got yet another take down just before the end of the round.
The second round and the fight started in the centre of the cage with both men landing kicks and big punches. Toole tried numerous times to get a takedown, with most stuffed, but his persistency helped and the fight went to the mat. Toole got into full mount and landed many decent strikes which made Dilworth turn over and give up his back. Toole looked for a rear naked, but Dilworth shook him off.
In the third and final round, the fight stayed mainly on the feet with both guys landing big shots and, at one point, Dilworth rocked Toole. Neither could finish the other and the fight went to the judges, with Toole getting the nod.
Dave Toole wins via unanimous decision after 3 x 5 minute rounds and becomes the new Controlled Aggression lightweight champion.

A low kick by Williams was caught by Noon, who then took the fight down and attempted a rear-naked choke, but it was expertly reversed by Williams, who then took Noon’s back to try and sink in a rear-naked choke of his own. Noon managed to shake him off and both men got to their feet. Noon then shot in for a takedown but landed straight into William’s guard who in turn worked for a triangle
choke and was successful.
George Williams wins via submission (triangle) at 4:37 in Round 1 and becomes the new flyweight Controlled Aggression champion.

Thanks to the promoters of Controlled Aggression, they have asked the UK’s number one MMA news website - The Fight Lounge, to do the honours in choosing the “Submission” and “Fight of the Night” awards,
so here we go.
Submission of the Night
Submission of the Night goes to Brett McDermott for his wins via Submission (guillotine choke) at 2:15 in Round 1 over Dave Graham in the main event bout.
McDermott received a vicious high kick to the head that nearly ended this fight in just a few seconds of the first round but managed to recover quick. Once the fight went to the ground, McDermott stayed calm and composed and got Graham’s neck and finished him with a nice guillotine choke.
Fight of the Night
Fight of the Night goes to Dave Bull vs. Danny Missin. A great fight, Bull dropped Missin early in the first round but managed to recover nicely and look for submissions to end the fight. Add in the striking exchanges and the slam and the fight is certainly worthy of the award.
A great night of action, we can’t wait for the sixth event.
