Dana White praises Tsarukyan's activity, says title shot depends on behavior

Dana White has commented positively on Arman Tsarukyan's recent activity level in the UFC. The UFC president indicated that Tsarukyan is close to earning a title shot, with the primary remaining requirement being to avoid behaving "like a maniac." White's comments suggest Tsarukyan's sporting performance has already met championship contender standards. The statement implies past behavioral concerns may have delayed Tsarukyan's title opportunity. Separately, Tsarukyan himself stated he believes Islam Makhachev will retire within a couple of fights and that he will become the face of UFC within a year once he captures the title.
