Tsarukyan says he would beat Khabib by decision; Cormier suggests McGregor for Makhachev

Arman Tsarukyan claimed he would have defeated Khabib Nurmagomedov by decision, citing his well-rounded skill set as the key advantage. Jiri Prochazka is highly rated by UFC brass, having fought in four title bouts across just eight UFC appearances. Dana White expressed relief at stepping back from fighter negotiations, stating the company has outgrown that phase and he grew tired of dealing with often irresponsible fighters. Daniel Cormier proposed an unusual career direction for Islam Makhachev, suggesting he should fight Conor McGregor. Tsarukyan was ready to bet one million dollars on Khamzat Chimaev's victory, but the streamer who proposed the bet quickly pulled back and changed the wager to fifty thousand dollars.
