This will be Lytle's last fight as he announced that he's planning on retiring after this bout. And the real main event, Miller/Henderson could determine the next contender to the lightweight title. Should be an exciting night of fights.

Dan Hardy (170*) vs. Chris Lytle (170.5)
Jim Miller (155.5) vs. Benson Henderson (156)
Duane Ludwig (170.5) vs. Amir Sadollah (170)

Yeah man...Lytle's no slouch too. That gives you a whole different understanding of the type of punching power a guy like Carlos Condit has to be able to beat Hardy the way he did.

Hardy says he's taking a break to reassess and learn. He really needs to work on his skills on the ground before he comes back.

i don't know what he was learning from roy nelson but big country is a black belt in bjj, hope he was at least working on his ground game a bit. hardy also trained with the shaolin monks in china - why doesn't he use more kung fu instead of just using his boxing?
 
Ben Henderson looked crazy good out there. The lightweight division is STACKED!

can't wait to see a Maynard vs Henderson match.

It was not just his ground game that got the best of him. I think he got caught up in the hype with the being chris's last fight and he wanted it to be a rockem sockem bout. Like Joe Rogan said numerous times "why has he abandoned his leg kicks.....I guess he just wants to trade with Chris....not a good idea". But when Hardy pressured Chris he seemed to get the best of him. It was a wierd fight that way. Then when you think Dan is going to pressure him again he tries to take him to the ground.....that did not work out at all. Hardy should have went for the KO as he had Chris rattled a few times and I think if he pressured him more he could have made history by being the first to KO Hardy.
