Dana White praises Arman Tsarukyan's activity, says title shot within reach

Dana White stated he likes Arman Tsarukyan's current activity level and that the Armenian fighter just needs to avoid behaving recklessly to secure a title shot. Tsarukyan himself expressed confidence about capturing the lightweight division within a year and becoming the face of UFC. He believes Islam Makhachev will retire after a couple more fights, making the path clearer. Tsarukyan stated that once he gets the title, he will dominate the sport and people will think of UFC when they see him. White's comments suggest Tsarukyan is close to earning his championship opportunity.
