The leading UFC fighter, Arman Tsarukyan, who holds the top spot in the rankings, was disqualified for nine months and fined $25,000 by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC). This decision was made following an incident that occurred during the UFC 300 event, where Tsarukyan punched a fan after winning his fight against Charles Oliveira. T
he incident at one of the biggest UFC events has sparked heated discussions among fans and inside the organization. The NSAC noted that the incident could have had disastrous consequences for all involved, leading them to take strong action. In order to reduce the disqualification to six months, Tsarukyan was given the option to release a video promoting an anti-bullying initiative.
This move aims to draw attention to the issue of violence and raise awareness about the negative effects of aggressive behavior.The decision to disqualify Arman Tsarukyan has caused a lot of discussion in the MMA community. Many fans and experts agree that the penalty was fair and in line with the severity of his offense.
However, it should be noted that this is the first time the commission has dealt with such a situation in Tsarukyan's career, and therefore the penalty can be seen as relatively mild.
As a result, the fight between Tsarukyan and Makhachev for the UFC lightweight title belt is unlikely to take place before October.
