Justin Gaethje recently gave his thoughts on Arman Tsarukyan’s UFC future and the Armenian not getting a title shot despite being the number one lightweight contender.
Tsarukyan got his shot at undisputed gold earlier this year at UFC 311 and was slated to lock horns with then-lightweight champion Islam Makhachev in a rematch. However, a back injury forced him to step out at the final moment, after which Renato Moicano stepped in and was submitted in Round 1 by Makhachev.
Tsarukyan’s pullout upset Dana White, who immediately revealed that he won’t get another title shot soon and is going back to the drawing board.
