Arman Tsarukyan reveals UFC sent him unexpected $42,000 bonus

Arman Tsarukyan disclosed that the UFC recently sent him an unexpected bonus payment of $42,000. The Armenian lightweight stated he was unsure what the payment was for, as the UFC typically does not specify reasons for such bonuses. Tsarukyan speculated it might be related to his social media activity or promotional work. He joked that he did not ask his manager for clarification because the manager might then request a percentage of the unexpected windfall. The revelation provides rare insight into additional compensation fighters receive beyond their disclosed fight purses.
