Tsarukyan says he'd beat Khabib, Cormier suggests McGregor fight for Makhachev

Arman Tsarukyan believes he would have defeated Khabib Nurmagomedov by decision, citing his versatility as a key advantage. Daniel Cormier proposed an unusual next step for Islam Makhachev's career: a fight with Conor McGregor. Dana White expressed relief at stepping back from direct fighter negotiations, saying the company has outgrown that phase and he's tired of dealing with often frivolous fighter issues. Jiri Prochazka is reportedly highly regarded by UFC leadership, having fought four title fights in just eight UFC appearances. Tsarukyan was prepared to bet one million dollars on Khamzat Chimaev's victory, but a streamer who proposed a bet on Sean O'Malley immediately reduced the wager to fifty thousand dollars.
