Tsarukyan, Topuria, Dvalishvili exchange heated words in media

Multiple UFC fighters have engaged in verbal exchanges through media statements. Arman Tsarukyan said he wants to fight Ilia Topuria and remove him from the UFC, stating he won't stop until he has at least five title defenses. Merab Dvalishvili said he has no problems with Dagestani fighters except Umar Nurmagomedov, whom he dislikes, but emphasized healthy competition among fighters from Armenia, Georgia, Chechnya, and Dagestan. Topuria responded harshly to Tsarukyan, calling him stupid and saying he would break his jaw in the first round if they fought. Additional items mention Tsarukyan discussing a potential Volkanovski bout, predictions for Chimaev vs O'Malley, Benoit Saint-Denis possibly facing Paddy Pimblett based on a social media post, and Bogdan Guskov declining a fight with Baranyevski.
