Dana White says Arman Tsarukyan needs title shot but must avoid being 'maniac'

Dana White stated that he likes Arman Tsarukyan's current activity level and believes Tsarukyan is close to earning a title shot. White advised Tsarukyan that to secure a championship bout, he simply needs to avoid behaving like a 'maniac.' White also referred to Tsarukyan as a 'tough bastard' while praising the Armenian fighter. The comments suggest Tsarukyan is being considered seriously for a title opportunity in the near future. White's remarks indicate that Tsarukyan's in-cage performance has impressed UFC management, but they want to see more consistent behavior outside the octagon.
