Which is why MMAjunkie columnist Ben Fowlkes brings you “The Break” to make sense of what just happened, presented in the time it takes to grab a refill of coffee before the boss notices you’re missing. This week, we have one question about Yair Rodriguez ’s miracle elbow knockout of Chan Sung Jung at UFC Fight Night 139, as well as the state of the UFC flyweight division . We also react to Mike Perry reacting to his submission loss against Donald Cerrone , and we pay homage – sort of – to the UFC on its 25th anniversary (thanks for the memories, Art Jimmerson). ]]></description>
