Dana White praised Arman Tsarukyan's current activity level and stated that he is very close to earning a title shot. White's only caveat was that Tsarukyan needs to avoid behaving like a "maniac." Tsarukyan himself stated that a fight with Islam Makhachev is unlikely, predicting Makhachev will retire after a couple more fights. The Armenian fighter expressed confidence that he will dominate the sport within a year and become the face of the UFC once he captures the title. The post also mentioned that Robert Whittaker denied rumors about a fight with Magomed Ankalaev, and that Michael Bisping and Daniel Cormier will serve as coaches on the next season of The Ultimate Fighter.
