Travis Browne and Matt Mitrione Bellator heavyweight Matt Mitrione said he’ll shop his case to attorneys after a failed attempt to overturn his TKO loss against Travis Browne. Mitrione called the Massachusetts State Athletic Commission’s handling of the matter “a sham” and told MMAjunkie he is “down for those conversations” after threatening to take the matter to state court. “I’m sure there’s some hungry lawyer that wants to take it further and go after some money,” he said during a conference call in support of his Bellator debut at Bellator 157 on Friday. “I know my case is strong and I know my position on valid.” Mitrione maintains the UFC Fight Night 81 bout’s referee failed to declare the fight a no-contest after Browne fouled him on multiple occasions. He also claims the referee, Gary Forman, had a conflict of interest that precluded him from working with the MSAC.
