Tsarukyan Receives Unexpected $42,000 Bonus from UFC

Arman Tsarukyan revealed the UFC recently sent him a surprise payment of $42,000, though he's unsure what prompted the bonus. The lightweight contender speculated it might be related to his social media activity but said the organization typically doesn't explain such payments. Tsarukyan joked he didn't want to ask for details in case his manager would request a percentage. The post also notes Sean Strickland's comments about Francis Ngannou, Carlos Prates' surprising size at 170 pounds, and Shamil Gaziev weighing 140kg before camp despite fighting at 120kg. Anatoly Malykhin explained his loyalty to ONE Championship despite UFC offers, citing the organization's support when no one else wanted him.
