Arman Tsarukyan said he wants Renato Moicano to lose so he can fight Ilia Topuria and "kick him out of the UFC," adding that his goal is to have at least five title defenses. Merab Dvalishvili stated he has no issues with Dagestani fighters except Umar Nurmagomedov, whom he dislikes, but emphasized there is healthy competition among fighters from Armenia, Georgia, Chechnya, and Dagestan. Ilia Topuria responded by calling Tsarukyan "incredibly stupid" and "a complete clown," saying everything he's seen from Tsarukyan online is cringe. Topuria mocked Tsarukyan for spending his father's money rather than his own and said if they fight, he will break Tsarukyan's jaw in the first round. Tsarukyan also discussed a possible bout with Alexander Volkanovski and predicted Khamzat Chimaev would beat Sean Strickland. Demetrious Johnson confidently predicted Chimaev over Strickland as well. Benoit Saint-Denis hinted at a fight with Paddy Pimblett by posting a picture of roast beef (an English dish) on social media. Bogdan Guskov declined a fight with an opponent named Baranievski.
