12/9 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. 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:

-In a new roundtable today, the crew looks at whom Robbie Lawler should face in his first UFC title defense. Excerpt from Rich Hansen: “If Rory MacDonald wins the title, and if Georges St-Pierre is ever going to return to the UFC, and if St-Pierre will never fight MacDonald, and if you understand the concept of making money... then Robbie Lawler's next fight needs to be this March, in Montreal, versus Georges St-Pierre.” Head to our mobile site at MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser for the full roundtable.

-In a brand new MMATorch Livecast tonight, Rich Hansen and I were joined by UFC heavyweight Josh Barnett for a half hour interview, and after that we broke down UFC 181 and much more. Head to the mobile site to listen to this week's two hour episode of our weekly podcast.

-Joe Rogan absolutely eviscerated his supposed friend Brendan Schaub on Schaub's own podcast today. The conversation came after Schaub's loss to Travis Browne last weekend, and Rogan did not hold back. Catch some comments from the broadcast, with further analysis on Rogan's approach and overall message on the mobile site now.

-Anderson Silva opened up on his thoughts regarding homosexual competitors in MMA, expressing a refreshing and much needed outlook on why he believes there are many closeted competitors, with many others afraid to speak up.

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!
