MONDAY 5/19 NIGHTTIME UPDATE
If you're tuning in to the App for the first time in a while, make sure to check out the big update on the App's home page for notes and information on the changes made to the new mobile site at MMATorch.com in your mobile browser. Our tech team has been working on even more tweaks based on your feedback, and have optimized the site for Safari and the default Android browser. They're continuing to work on the same for both Chrome and Opera as well. Keep sending your thoughts in to mmatorch@gmail.com so we can make the mobile site the best experience for you! We truly appreciate the feedback, and we're making changes as necessary. Here's what's on the site tonight:
-Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney thought he had squashed things with Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal on Saturday night between the Bellator 120 card and its post-fight press conference. Then Rebney decided to turn the heat back on himself by agreeing with the universally decried judges decision and say he scored it the same way. Lawal went off on Monday further, and said if Bellator can't or won't give him respect, maybe another organization will. See his comments with further analysis in the main listing at MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser now.
-In news out of New York, longtime trainer and former UFC competitor Renzo Gracie was arrested, along with his cousin Igor, for their part in the alleged group beating of a nightclub bouncer. If proven true, it's pretty disgusting for someone with their background to be taking part in that type of assault given the multitude of techniques they'd have over a non-martial artist. More details with analysis in the main listing.
-Diego Brandao has suffered an injury, taking him out of next week's “Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 3” Finale event in Sao Paulo. The UFC has scrapped his fight with newcomer Brian Ortega. Head to the main listing for the full card as it stands now.
-Finally tonight, the UFC's first ever event in New Zealand, which comes to the city of Auckland on June 28, has added a native of Auckland. Lightweight Dan Hooker will take on fellow UFC newcomer Ian Entwistle on the card. Get more information on both fighters now at the new and improved MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser.
We thank all of our readers for their feedback and patience as we continue making improvements on the new mobile site. We're an independent voice in the MMA space with no corporate backing, and as such we stay afloat on ad revenue. This shift to the full listing on mobile web brings us a better chance to keep ourselves going and to bring our readers everything we have for the last five years and more, as the mobile advertising market is simply stronger than that on the app. Continue sending us your feedback to mmatorch@gmail.com and let us know how the new features with the Disqus comments section and more are working for you on mobile web!
