Introduction
Ultimate Fight Fan by Joe Sriver is an app that brings you all the news about UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) and other MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) events. Even though this app is not endorsed by the UFC, it does keep you up-to-date with the headlines, all kinds of videos, and other UFC- and MMA-related content. There also is a lot of connectivity in the app, such as a chat forum, a page where you can vote on the next winner, links to social networks, podcasts and other sports news, the UFC store, and strangely out of place, a weather forecast.

Great Design and Access
The app is designed in a grid format, with the top bar always visible. You can simply scroll down and check out all the different categories on the front page. Each square on the grid has its own visualization and tapping a square brings you to the relevant subject matter. Each subject has tons of different content for you to access, free of charge, and includes photos, videos, and any other relevant media for you to enjoy.

To access the chat forum, you can simply comment using your Twitter or Facebook account, which you will be asked for after you submit your message. The chat forum isn’t that busy as the app is relatively new, with the last few comments posted over a week ago.
Other Features and Sharing Options
One of the really cool features of the app are the fight cards. You can simply see which fighters are going to clash in the ring in the first upcoming match. This data comes from the Spanish UFC website, so this content is all in that language. You can also see the results of different matches here, including all kinds of different statistics.
