UFC’s Chris Lytle undergoes successful knee surgery, expected to be out six months

With no surprises or complications, UFC welterweight Chris Lytle today underwent successful knee surgery.

Lytle, who injured his knee while preparing for a UFC Fight Night 19 bout with Carlos Condit, was scratched from the Sept. 16 card earlier this week, as MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) first reported.

Lytle underwent surgery near his home in Indianapolis. Doctors replaced his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and repaired his medial meniscus, his agent, Ken Pavia of MMAAgents.com, today confirmed via text message.

The fighter, who turns 35 next week, is expected to be out of action for approximately six months.
