Chris Lytle out-boxed Matt Serra for 15 minutes Saturday night at UFC 119, winning a unanimous decision in a fight that consisted of little more than Lytle and Serra standing in front of each other and trading punches.
The bout was a rematch of Serra’s victory over Lytle in the Ultimate Fighter 4 Finale four years ago, and Lytle said this time the fight went exactly the way he wanted it to go.
“I just wanted to do the fight different from last night,” Lytle said.

Here are two things we know about Chris Lytle: 1) he’s one of the only fighters in the UFC who will tell you straight-up that he isn’t necessarily trying to earn a title shot, and 2) he’s won more end of the night bonuses than any other fighter
After watching him in yet another slugfest against Matt Serra at UFC 119 on Saturday night, it’s hard not to think that those two points are related.
It’s not that Lytle is unambitious. It’s more that he just happens to have different ambitions these days, and those ambitions lead him into the kind of fights where a regard for his own body seems to be the last thing on his mind. In Serra, he found an opponent equally as willing to trade pain for applause, and the result was bloody, messy, and wonderful.
That’s why their fight might have been the perfect counterbalance to the night’s most disappointing bout, a three-round staring contest between Frank Mir and Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic that came to a merciful end just a minute before the final horn.

INDIANAPOLIS – Frank Mir walked into the UFC 119 post-fight press conference and sat down, leaning back in his chair. His body language told the story of dejection, an emotion at odds with the truth of what had just happened.
Rebounding into the win column six months after his interim title fight loss to Shane Carwin, Mir knocked out PRIDE legend Mirko Cro Cop late in the third round of their main event fight before 15,811 fans at Conseco Fieldhouse.
Despite the win, Mir voiced disappointment at his performance.
“No disrespect, it was a pretty s—– performance as far as I wanted to push the pace more,” Mir said. “While he’s swinging punches at you, it’s not as easy. He caught my attention with his velocity. He did some different things. Exiting out to my left threw me. As far as striking, I could have gotten more busy. And pushing him against the cage, I drilled so much but I made mistakes that I wasn’t making like lifting my arm up and exposing my ribcage. I think I had too much time to think and I had to clear my mind. But then again, without a single takedown, I was able to stand up with Mirko for two and a half rounds and win by KO.”

Okay, so there’s no title on the line at UFC 119 in Indianapolis this weekend. There’s probably not even anyone who will emerge as a No. 1 contender in their division as a result of a win on Saturday night, at least not unless another major injury bug clears the path.
So where does that leave us? As far as the main event, we’re in ‘just for fun’ territory. Two former heavyweight greats with uncertain futures square off in a fight that is not terribly meaningful for the state of the division, but is still pretty interesting.
Is that worth your pay-per-view dollar? Depends on your perspective and your amount of disposable income. But if you’re on the fence about it, let me just remind you that Matt Serra and Chris Lytle are also on the card, and Serra didn’t bring a pair of big sunglasses to Indy with him for nothing.
Now let’s take a look at the betting odds for Saturday’s fights and make some hasty, financially ruinous decisions, shall we?

Here’s another story that illustrates why the Potato Nation is awesome.
Jason Wright (or J-Dog as he is known around these parts) contacted us about a month ago to see if we needed a photographer to cover UFC 119 for us. Since CagePotato had never been credentialed, we figured with the success of our UFC Fan Expo booth (which was due largely to the help of CP’ers ReX13 and Viva Hate) now is as good a time as any to apply.
