Bisping took this fight in round 3. I know the fight result says that too, but I mean he TOOK the fight. Like, TOOK the SHIT out of that fight. Like...you know..TOOK it.
Any...ways..............
Good first round, with even, back and forth mini-damage. Coulda been better. Same, generally, with round 2. Generally. I would give Lytle some D, perhaps some offense or aggression as well. His damage take-a-bility seemed okay. But he still lost, so go figure. No, really. GO FIGURE. When you figure that shit out, get back to me.
