Arman Tsarukyan has outlined ambitious goals and issued challenges to multiple fighters. The Armenian fighter stated he wants Diego Lopes to withdraw so he can fight Ilia Topuria and "kick him out of the UFC," calling that his main goal. Tsarukyan also declared he won't stop until he has at least five UFC title defenses. Meanwhile, Merab Dvalishvili commented on regional rivalries, saying he has no problems with Dagestani fighters except Umar Nurmagomedov, emphasizing healthy competition among fighters from Armenia, Georgia, Chechnya, and Dagestan. Topuria responded harshly to Tsarukyan's comments, calling him unintelligent and promising to break his jaw in the first round if they meet. The post also mentions Tsarukyan discussed a potential Volkanovski bout and gave predictions about Khamzat Chimaev's prospects.
