The highlight of the second Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship was when Drew Lipton — an MMA veteran of 32 fights — found himself clearing the cobwebs upon eating the broadside of Chris Lytle’s knuckle. He got back up and shared a laugh while the doctor checked the cut over his left eye, before declaring himself ready to try again. It was gallant, but ultimately futile. Lipton went back out there just to get hacked down a second time, and then a third. Lipton was no match for Lytle, who — in his 44th year on Earth — looked to have discovered the sport he’d been longing for his whole life.
