Chris Lytle ended his UFC career in style on Sunday night in Milwaukee, submitting Dan Hardy with less than a minute to go in the third round of an exciting main event.
The 36-year-old Lytle announced before the fight that he was planning to retire to spend more time with his family and explore a political career, and he couldn’t have asked for a better way to go out. The fight was exactly the kind of brawl that Lytle loves, with plenty of hard punches landed by both men. The fight was fought almost entirely standing up, but late in the third round, when they went to the ground for the first time, Lytle sunk in a guillotine choke that forced Hardy to tap.
