Arman Tsarukyan made an unusual jab at Ilia Topuria, calling the featherweight champion "not a man" based on personal grooming habits. According to Tsarukyan, the reason for this comment is that "he shaves his butt, and I don't." The bizarre callout appears to be part of ongoing verbal exchanges between the two fighters. While both compete in different weight classes—Tsarukyan at lightweight and Topuria at featherweight—there has been speculation about potential matchups between top fighters across divisions. The comment is characteristic of the sometimes unconventional trash talk in MMA social media exchanges.
