Arman Tsarukyan believes he would have beaten Khabib by decision

Arman Tsarukyan stated he believes he would have defeated Khabib Nurmagomedov by decision, citing his well-rounded skillset as the main advantage. Dana White commented that he is glad to have stepped back from fighter negotiations, saying the company has outgrown that stage and he grew tired of dealing with what he considers often frivolous fighter problems. Daniel Cormier suggested an unusual career move for Islam Makhachev, proposing that Islam should fight Conor McGregor. Tsarukyan was reportedly ready to bet one million dollars on Khamzat Chimaev's victory, but a streamer who had offered the bet immediately withdrew and changed the wager amount to $50,000. The post also noted that Jiri Prochazka is highly rated by UFC management, having competed in eight UFC fights including four title fights.
