For those unaware, I spent all of last week hanging out with TapouT founder, Bobby Razak, in London working on some top-secret project that's so mysterious, not even Jesus M. Christ has an idea what we did out there. The ratio of 'partying' to 'business' was a little unbalanced, but it was rightly deserved. In reality, the UK is a pretty depressing place. The sun is hardly out, everything is constantly covered in a blanket of moisture and rain, and above all else, everything closes at 8:00 pm. Yeah, I can't understand it either -- so I didn't even try. Instead, I watched Logan's Run like five times because it was much more enjoyable.

Razak did tell me about a Chris Lytle political campaign he was working on while we were stranded in England. Lights out Lytle holds the record for most 'of the night' awards, racking up a total of ten in just four years with the UFC. Now the retired fighter is focusing on knocking out whatever needs to be knocked out within the Indiana State Senate. If you live in the area, you should get off your futon and vote for Lytle out of sheer respect for the sport of MMA. You should also look at this video created by Bobby Razak, and follow him on Twitter while you're at it.

...but seeing Lytle in a suit feels odd.

I'd vote for him to fight in a cage.
Why do these guys wanna sully themselves with politics? Stay away from the snakepit and get back into the sharktank!

He seems as though he genuinely want to help his community by serving in the State senate. Can't fight forever, if you've earned yourself some popularity and a good reputation, might as well put it to use for the benefit of those you care about. Plus he doesn't get punched in the face any more and his kids don't have to see their dad beat up.

yeah unless he's an amazing liar i get the impression that he doesn't want power for the sake of power

which, according to my 100% uninformed opinion, is a major problem in american govt

Having a guy in any leadership position that knows what it means to actually work for a living is the comforting. I'd vote for him in a heartbeat.
