A good deal just got even better.UFC officials today announced than a planned Facebook.com stream for Saturday's "UFC Fight Night 23: UFC Fight for the Troops 2" event will now feature four bouts instead of just two.
The new additions to the stream include Mike Brown (24-7 MMA, 0-2 UFC) vs. Rani Yahya (15-6 MMA, 0-0 UFC) and Willamy Freire (17-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC) vs. Waylon Lowe (9-3 MMA, 1-1 UFC).
The stream now begins at 7 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT) and precedes the night's Spike TV broadcast of the five-fight main card.
The two new bouts join previously announced matchups of former U.S. Army and National Guard member DaMarques Johnson (11-8 MMA, 2-2 UFC) vs. welterweight Mike Guymon (12-4-1 MMA, 1-2 UFC) and lightweights Cody McKenzie (12-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) vs. Yves Edwards (38-16-1 MMA, 6-4 UFC).
To access the stream, viewers must visit the UFC's official Facebook profile (www.facebook.com/ufc) and push the "Like" button for the page.
"I'm always looking for ways to give fans fights for free, and this is just another example of that," UFC president Dana White stated when the stream was first announced. "Facebook is such a great tool for people to stay connected, and we're excited to put two live fights on our UFC page for free."
Now make that four.
Facebook is the world's most popular social-networking site and one of the most visited websites in existence.
