Dana White says Arman Tsarukyan close to title shot with current activity

Dana White commented that he likes Arman Tsarukyan's current level of activity and that Tsarukyan is close to earning a title shot. According to White, all Tsarukyan needs to do now is avoid behaving recklessly to secure his championship opportunity. Meanwhile, Tsarukyan himself stated he believes a fight with Islam Makhachev is unlikely as he expects Makhachev to retire after a couple more fights. Tsarukyan expressed confidence that he will capture the title within a year and become the face of the UFC. The post also mentions ongoing back-and-forth accusations between Islam and Ilia, Costa commenting that he enjoys fighting Russians, Robert Whittaker denying rumors of a fight with Ankalaev, and Michael Bisping and Daniel Cormier being announced as coaches for the next season of The Ultimate Fighter.
