Arman Tsarukyan receives unexpected $42,000 UFC bonus

Arman Tsarukyan revealed that the UFC recently sent him an extra bonus of $42,000, and he was unsure what it was for. He explained that the UFC typically doesn't specify reasons for such bonuses. Tsarukyan speculated it might be related to his social media work but admitted he didn't ask for clarification because his manager might want a percentage if he knew the reason. Sean Strickland made controversial comments, and Carlos Prates and Jack Maddalena held their first face-off, with observers noting Prates' size despite competing at 170 pounds without strict dietary discipline. Shamil Gaziev reportedly weighed around 140 kg (308 lbs) with his fight at 120 kg (265 lbs) taking place in Australia, where recovery time is significantly shorter than usual.
