Gaethje Comments on Tsarukyan's Missed Title Shot

    Justin Gaethje has weighed in on Arman Tsarukyan's absence from the UFC lightweight title contention. Despite Tsarukyan's high ranking, the UFC chose Gaethje to face Paddy Pimblett for the interim title at UFC 324. Gaethje acknowledges Tsarukyan's deserving status but cites his recent controversies as detrimental. Issues like withdrawing from a title fight and altercations at events reportedly influenced the UFC's decision. Gaethje empathizes with the promotion's stance, especially with UFC 324 marking the start of the Paramount partnership. Tsarukyan remains active in competitions following his previous UFC victories.
