Arman Tsarukyan wants Gaethje to miss weight, targets Topuria and five title defenses

Arman Tsarukyan stated he would like Justin Gaethje to miss weight so he could fight Ilia Topuria and "kick him out of the UFC." Tsarukyan also said he will only stop when he has at least five title defenses. Meanwhile, Merab Dvalishvili clarified he has no problems with Dagestani fighters except Umar Nurmagomedov, saying Armenians, Georgians, Chechens, and Dagestanis all work hard and maintain healthy competition. Topuria responded by heavily criticizing Tsarukyan, calling him unintelligent and claiming he would break his jaw in the first round if they fight. Additional news in the digest includes Demetrious Johnson predicting Khamzat Chimaev would defeat Sean O'Malley, Benoit Saint-Denis apparently announcing a fight with Paddy Pimblett, and Bogdan Guskov declining a fight with Baranievski.
