Chris Lytle
Chris Scott "Lights Out" Lytle (August 18, 1974 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is an American mixed martial arts fighter, boxer and a veteran of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Lytle is the reigning Cage Rage World Welterweight champion, and was prominently featured as a welterweight on The Ultimate Fighter 4: The Comeback.
He was a contestant on The Ultimate Fighter 4 on Spike TV, where he defeated Pete Spratt and Din Thomas in exhibition bouts to proceed to the welterweight finale. On November 11th, Matt Serra defeated Lytle by split decision in The Ultimate Fighter 4 Finale. Lytle was the more active fighter on the feet, with Serra tying up and using foot stomps until he got takedowns at which time he became the more active fighter with Lytle holding guard and seemingly waiting for the referee to stand the fight up. Two judges scored the bout 30-27 for Serra, and one judge scored the fight 30-27 for Lytle, but despite the scores the match was very close. He lost to former UFC Welterweight Champion Matt Hughes on March 3rd at UFC 68 in Columbus, Ohio via unanimous decision.
