12/24 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 today:

-In a new roundtable this afternoon, the crew reacted to Rampage Jackson's return to the UFC. Excerpt from Dan Moore: “Rafael Cavalcante, Fabio Maldonado, and Patrick Cummins are all in the top 15, and that tells me all I need to know about the state of the division. He should easily slide back into the top 10, and while he's no threat to the top 7 or 8, he's a got a good fight or two left in him. I'd like to see him fight Jimi Manuwa in his first fight back, that would be entertaining, and one that could go either way.” Head to our mobile site at MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser for the full roundtable.

-Frank Hyden today took a look at the good, bad, and ugly from UFC Fight Night 58, with additional thoughts on Rampage Jackson's signing and Dominick Cruz's latest injury. Excerpt on Lyoto Machida vs. C.B. Dollaway: “Machida crushed Dollaway with a hard body kick about a minute in. I was surprised that Machida jumped on it like that, he usually sits back and waits and waits and waits. It was an awesome and brutal finish as he just destroyed Dollaway's insides. You could tell that Dollaway was in a tremendous amount of pain. Great win for Machida, and a fantastic way to end the evening.” Get the full column now on the mobile site.

-T.J. Dillashaw is open to another fight with Renan Barao given the injuries to Dominick Cruz and Raphael Assuncao, but he'd prefer fights with UFC Champions Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson and Jose Aldo. Catch his comments with further analysis on the likelihood of those fights happening next on the mobile site now.

-In a new poll this morning, we asked readers for their initial thoughts on who would win the potential fight between Lyoto Machida and Luke Rockhold. 68% believe Machida's the better fighter and will win if they're matched up.
