A few points on the negative side;
After 40 seconds your mouth was open, not good.
I understand nerves come into play as a novice boxer but you need to get control of your emotions to do well.
Your balance is horrible! When you step to your opponent your back foot actually gets even with your lead foot and you often step over into a southpaw stance. You got away with that against your opponent because he was far less experienced than yourself.
You do a lot of glove movement and head movement when your not even in arms way, again controlling your nerves and relaxing will help.
Your form and style will hurt you in a sanctioned amateur tournament. You will be cautioned for lowering your head and you will wing up landing shots on the non-fist portion of your gloves.
Sorry to so negative but the brawler style won't get you any favors n the amateur environment.
You look like you taught yourself and have done some sparring without any instruction on form and style.
Techniques are needed even using a brawling style, the first is gaining an advantage with distance. When to be out of range and when to be inside range.
The positive is got in there, you are trying to compete and you won.
You are no where near an Open Class fighter!!! You are a novice
category and if the rules are the same from when I ran my teams you get 9 sanctioned bouts at novice. Might be different these days.
You need to get that balance and foot positioning worked out. Once you do you need to shadow box a minimum of 5 rounds a day (not looking down)
I can't direct you over the net but I can suggest you get a real trainer who teachers a variety of styles and knows the techniques that accompany them.
Good luck, eyes up chin down!!!!
