Lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan took a jab at featherweight champion Ilia Topuria in a recent comment. Tsarukyan called Topuria 'not a man' based on a peculiar reasoning: that Topuria shaves his buttocks while Tsarukyan does not. The remark appears to be part of ongoing verbal exchanges between fighters from different weight classes. The comment was delivered in a joking manner but adds to the social media banter in the MMA community. No specific fight or deeper conflict between the two was mentioned.
