Join Nick Lamagna on The A Game Podcast with our guest Chris “Lights Out” Lytle! A former firefighter, UFC veteran, politician, author, podcast host and Bare Knuckle fighter and commentator as well as liquor connoisseur. Fighting out of Indiana he has spent time bringing people TO consciousness as a firefighter and spent many nights also knocking them unconscious in the ring and the cage for years earning himself the nickname “Lights Out!”
He has hit the highest levels in the sport becoming a finalist on the The ultimate fighter and has gone toe to toe with the biggest names to fight in the UFC as well as being the first fighter to win all three bonuses including Fight of the Night five times and Submission of the Night: three times and he holds the record for the most post-fight bonuses in UFC Welterweight history.
He went on after his UFC career to fight and win in the Bare knuckle Fighting Championship and you can find him ringside commentating at BKFC events on most weekends for one of the fastest growing combat sports in the world today. He used his good name, reputation and desire to bring change to the world in different rings over the years including a run at Indiana State Senate trying to bring some authenticity back to politics and even has The Chris Lytle Foundation helping stop and reduce bullying, The Lytles Out Podcast covering incredible MMA history with legends of the sport and even his own Lytles Out Bourbon
