Despite unique submission win, UFC 116’s Chris Lytle still a boxer at heart

For the second time in his career, UFC welterweight Chris Lytle kept Matt Brown at bay with a second-round submission at UFC 116. And he did it with a hold he’s used in competition before.

But despite the unique submissions he pulled out of his hat this past Saturday – and one he fought out of – Lytle didn’t give himself much of a pat on the back.

“Those (submissions) were just kind of luck I guess,” Lytle said. “I’m not very good on the ground. I’m a boxer, pure and simple.”
