Israel Adesanya is the middleweight champion once more! Seconds after watching “The Last Stylebender” exorcise the demons of his past, Ariel Helwani, Petesy Carroll, and Chuck Mindenhall offer an emotional instant reaction show to another massively successful night for the UFC. Tonight, the guys discuss:
