UFC President Dana White commented positively on Arman Tsarukyan's recent activity and stated that the Armenian fighter is close to earning a title shot. White advised Tsarukyan that he simply needs to avoid behaving like a "maniac" to secure the championship opportunity. White also called Tsarukyan a "tough bastard" in his assessment. Tsarukyan himself stated that a fight with Islam Makhachev is unlikely as the champion will retire after a couple more fights. The Armenian fighter believes he will capture the sport within a year and become the face of UFC once he wins the title. Other news mentioned includes Michael Bisping and Daniel Cormier becoming coaches for the next TUF season and various other fighter updates.
