FRIDAY 7/25 EVENING 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 today:

-Our roundtable this afternoon features predictions for the Robbie Lawler vs. Matt Brown main event tomorrow night at UFC on Fox 12. Excerpt from Tom Strong: “I think we can safely say in this fight 1) it isn't going the distance, and 2) the fight won't be going to the mat. This will be a stand up war, featuring two fighters with knockout power. What Brown has achieved in his last seven fights, no one could've predicted. He's made non-believers into believers with his stunning performances, and not just by running his mouth to get into title contention.” Head to the main listing of our mobile site at MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser for the full roundtable.

-Speaking of that fight, Brown missed weight by a pound and a half, and will forfeit 20% of his purse to Lawler. Dana White says it won't hurt his contender status if he wins, though. Full weigh-in results in the main listing.

-Bellator 122 hits Spike TV tonight, and we'll have live round by round coverage of the televised fights in the main listing. We'll bring quick results here later on, but you can follow the report with star ratings, commentary, and more on the mobile site.

-Ultimate Fighter winner Julianna Pena badly injured her leg in training in January, but she's already been cleared to train, as hard as that may be to believe. More on that in the main listing now.

-Finally, another fight has been added to the UFC Fight Night 53 card in Stockholm, as Niklas Backstrom will try to follow up on an impressive debut against the returning Mike Wilkinson.

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!
