Dana White says he’s not thrilled with Arman Tsarukyan, citing a pattern of disruptive behavior beyond public incidents (RAF06 brawl, UFC 300 fan punch, Hooker headbutt) and an earlier UFC 311 pullout; with Tsarukyan active in outside‑UFC grappling and a rematch against Georgio Poullas on the horizon, his title‑shot prospects appear jeopardized by concerns over his conduct.

Pimblett lost a unanimous decision to Gaethje in the UFC 324 main event for the interim lightweight title, enduring two knockdowns and a first-round body shot. He praised Gaethje as a legend, rejected a moral victory, and vowed to return stronger, noting he believed 48-47 was a fair score.
Paddy Pimblett enters UFC 324 as the favourite for the interim lightweight title, claiming he’ll finish Justin Gaethje early and that he’s a harder puzzle to solve than Khabib Nurmagomedov, while Gaethje accuses him of overconfidence and vows to figure him out at the Las Vegas media event.
