Strickland makes gun comment about Ngannou; Tsarukyan receives mystery bonus

Sean Strickland responded to a question from Francis Ngannou about carrying a weapon by telling him to look in the mirror for the reason. Carlos Prates and Jack Della Maddalena had their first face-off, with Prates appearing notably large for the welterweight division despite lacking dietary discipline. Shamil Gaziev currently weighs around 140 kg while competing at 120 kg, with a fight scheduled in Australia where recovery time is half the usual. Arman Tsarukyan revealed the UFC sent him an extra $42,000 bonus recently, and he is unsure what it was for, speculating it might be related to his social media work. Tsarukyan joked he did not ask for details because his manager might want a percentage.
