Dana White praises Arman Tsarukyan's activity, says title shot near

UFC President Dana White has commented positively on Arman Tsarukyan's recent activity level. White stated that to secure a title shot, Tsarukyan simply needs to avoid acting "like a maniac." The comments suggest Tsarukyan is very close to earning a championship opportunity. Meanwhile, Tsarukyan himself expressed doubt that a fight with Islam Makhachev will happen, predicting Islam will retire after a couple more fights. Tsarukyan claimed he will capture the sport within a year and become the face of the UFC once he gets the title. The post also mentions Robert Whittaker denying rumors about fighting Magomed Ankalaev, and notes that Paulo Costa said he loves fighting Russians because they're tough like Brazilians.
