Arman Tsarukyan aims to become face of UFC within a year

Arman Tsarukyan stated he believes his fight with Islam Makhachev is unlikely because Makhachev will retire after a couple more bouts. Tsarukyan declared that within the next year he will dominate the sport and become the face of UFC, with people thinking of the promotion when they see him. He said all that remains is capturing the title. Dana White commented positively on Tsarukyan's current activity level, noting that to secure a title shot he simply needs to avoid behaving erratically. The post also mentioned other news including Robert Whittaker denying bout rumors with Magomed Ankalaev, and Michael Bisping and Daniel Cormier being announced as coaches for the next TUF season.
