Arman Tsarukyan Offers Truck Gift to Justin Gaethje After UFC Win
Arman Tsarukyan offered a truck gift to Justin Gaethje after his UFC White House win, but Gaethje refused, sparking a public feud.
Gaethje's win over Ilia Topuria at UFC White House earlier this month prompted a friend of Tsarukyan's to wager $1 million on Gaethje, netting a reported $5.7 million return.
Tsarukyan pledged to buy Gaethje a truck as a thank-you, but Gaethje shot down the gesture on The Joe Rogan Experience.
Tsarukyan is riding a five-fight win streak and has long been positioned as the top lightweight contender, though injuries and disputes have delayed his title shot.
Gaethje's refusal of the truck gift has sparked a heated exchange between the two fighters, with Tsarukyan responding with a series of comments on Nina Drama's Kick stream.
Tsarukyan plans to give the truck to a fan instead and promised to make Gaethje pay in the cage, setting up a potential future matchup between the two fighters.
And Tsarukyan's comments have added fuel to the fire, with the Armenian contender looking to prove himself as a top contender in the lightweight division.
But Gaethje's refusal of the truck gift has also raised questions about the relationship between the two fighters, with some speculating about a potential grudge match.
So the feud between Gaethje and Tsarukyan continues to escalate, with no end in sight.
Tsarukyan's five-fight win streak has cemented his position as a top contender, with a reported 5-0 record in his last five fights.
Gaethje's win over Topuria at UFC White House marked a major upset, with Gaethje forcing the former champion to quit on the stool after four rounds.
The win has set up Gaethje as a potential title contender, but Tsarukyan's comments have made it clear that he is not afraid of a fight against the new champion.
