Arman Tsarukyan has declared his intention to take over the sport within the next year and become the face of the UFC. The lightweight contender stated that he believes Islam Makhachev will retire after a couple more fights, suggesting their potential matchup may not materialize.

Dana White commented that he likes Tsarukyan's current activity level and that the fighter only needs to avoid acting like a "maniac" to secure a title shot. Additionally, the post mentions that Robert Whittaker has denied rumors about fighting Magomed Ankalaev, and that Michael Bisping and Daniel Cormier will serve as coaches on the next season of The Ultimate Fighter.
