UFC 28: High Stakes Preview
Ben Earwood vs Chris Lytle
Ben Earwood vs Chris Lytle
(Lightweight)
In the Lightweight match, we have Extreme Challenge and Superbrawl veteran Ben Earwood going against Pancrase and Extreme challenge competitor Chris Lytle. Both men have fought some impressive names leading up to their debut in Atlantic City. Earwood has beaten both the Shark Tank's Victor Hunsaker and Pride 11 veteran Shannon Rich in around two minutes each and he has decision losses to recent UFC participants John Allessio and C.J. Fernandez.
Lytle has faced his share of UFC competitors as well having
faced Dave Menne in Extreme Challenge and Ikuhisa Minowa in the
Pancrase organization overseas.
MY PICK: Going off the experience factor (and not quality of
opponent, few are tougher than Dave Menne), I'd have to give this
one to Earwood by submission. Sorry Shonie, I know Chris is your
bud.
