Arman Tsarukyan reacted to the comments of UFC President Dana White, who stated that Arman’s next fight would not be for the title as he had missed his chance. Now, he will have to go through a contender fight.
"I agree with Dana White. As soon as my back heals, I’ll be ready to prove that I’m the true No. 1 contender by fighting anyone they offer!" Arman Tsarukyan wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Following this, Michael Chandler challenged Arman to a fight. Tsarukyan responded: "I don’t mind, but fighting someone who’s beaten you twice sounds much more interesting (referring to Oliveira)."
Let us remind you that the Armenian fighter had to withdraw from his scheduled fight against Islam Makhachev at UFC 311 due to injury.
