Quick read

Arman Tsarukyan revealed the UFC sent him an unexpected $42,000 bonus a few days ago. He stated he doesn't know what the payment was for, noting that the UFC typically doesn't explain such bonuses. Tsarukyan speculated it might be related to his social media work. He joked that he didn't ask for clarification because his manager might want a percentage. The post also included updates on other fighters: Sean Strickland made a comment about Francis Ngannou and carrying a weapon; Carlos Prates and Jack Maddalena had their first staredown, with Prates appearing notably large for the welterweight division; and Shamil Gaziev weighed approximately 140kg despite fighting at 120kg, with concerns about recovery time in Australia.
