Dana White expressed his appreciation for lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan in recent comments, calling him a "tough bastard." However, the UFC president also advised Tsarukyan to stop being a "maniac," echoing concerns about the fighter's conduct at events. White's comments reflect a balance between acknowledging Tsarukyan's talent and marketability while addressing behavioral concerns. The statement suggests the UFC sees value in Tsarukyan as a fighter and personality but wants him to moderate his approach at promotional appearances. This feedback comes as Tsarukyan remains a top contender in the lightweight division.
