Dana White praises Arman Tsarukyan but advises him to stop being a 'maniac'

Dana White publicly stated that he likes Arman Tsarukyan and called him a "tough bastard." However, the UFC president advised the Armenian lightweight contender to stop behaving like a "maniac" if he wants to secure his title shot opportunity. White's comments suggest that Tsarukyan's current activity level and performance are satisfactory, but his behavior outside the octagon may be a concern. The remarks indicate that Tsarukyan is close to earning a championship opportunity if he maintains his current trajectory while moderating his conduct.
