Arman Tsarukyan stated that he believes he would have defeated Khabib Nurmagomedov by decision, citing his versatile skill set as the key advantage. Daniel Cormier proposed an unusual career continuation for Islam Makhachev, suggesting a fight with Conor McGregor. Tsarukyan was reportedly ready to bet one million dollars on Khamzat Chimaev's victory, but the streamer who proposed the bet quickly changed the wager amount to fifty thousand dollars. Dana White expressed satisfaction with stepping back from direct fighter negotiations, saying the company has outgrown that stage and he grew tired of dealing with often frivolous fighter issues. Jiri Prochazka is highly rated by UFC leadership, having fought eight times in the UFC with four title fights, and he believes Alex Pereira could defeat Ciryl Gane.
