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 gave their thoughts on a potential Lyoto Machida vs. Luke Rockhold contender fight in the UFC's middleweight division. Excerpt from Dan Moore: “With Chris Weidman vs. Vitor Belfort and Ronaldo Souza vs. Yoel Romero already set, this is absolutely the right fight to make. As I wrote in my 'Fights to Make' column earlier this week, the winner will be very close to a title shot if they do it convincingly. It's unlikely they get it straight away because Jacare will get there first in he beats Romero. And then there's Anderson Silva. However, either guy would be a deserving contender later in 2015. I have no problem with Machida getting another shot so soon because he's that good.” Head to our mobile site at MMATorch.com in your phone or tablet browser for the full roundtable.

-Rampage Jackson's manager says they were sold on signing with Viacom and Bellator by a whole lot of promises which weren't met, and it gave them an out from that deal. Catch his comments with further analysis with that information on the mobile site now.

-Last weekend's UFC Fight Night 58 event, headlined by Lyoto Machida vs. C.B. Dollaway, drew 966,000 viewers to Fox Sports 1. More on the numbers on the mobile site.
