The 10 Rarest submissions in MMA history

#5 Chris Lytle’s double-barrelled Inverted Triangle Choke and Armbar against Jason Gilliam

Chris “Lights Out” Lytle would indubitably find a place in the upper reaches of a list of fan favourites who never won a title. The 20-fight UFC veteran was the first fighter in the promotion’s history to win “Submission of the night” and “Knockout of the night” bonuses.

A former pro-boxer with twenty-two wins by submission and three “Submission of the night” bonuses, Lytle retired in 2011 with a win over Dan Hardy. The firefighter and TV host was never knocked out or submitted in the UFC, with the only stoppage coming on doctor’s orders after a cut.
