Arman Tsarukyan stated he believes he would have defeated Khabib Nurmagomedov by decision, citing his more well-rounded skillset as the main advantage. Daniel Cormier proposed an unusual career continuation for Islam Makhachev, suggesting he should fight Conor McGregor. Meanwhile, Dana White expressed relief at stepping back from fighter negotiations, saying the company has outgrown that phase and he grew tired of dealing with often frivolous fighter issues. Tsarukyan was also reportedly ready to wager one million dollars on Khamzat Chimaev's victory, though the streamer who proposed the bet quickly reduced the amount to fifty thousand dollars.
