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

Dana White has commented positively on Arman Tsarukyan's recent activity and stated that the Armenian fighter is close to earning a title shot. According to White, the only thing standing between Tsarukyan and a championship bout is that he needs to stop acting like a 'maniac.' White's comments suggest Tsarukyan is in a strong position in the lightweight division but needs to maintain composure. Tsarukyan himself expressed confidence that he will capture the title within a year and become the face of UFC, though he doubts a fight with Islam Makhachev will materialize as he believes Islam will retire after a couple more fights. White also referred to Tsarukyan as a 'tough bastard,' indicating respect for the fighter's abilities.
