[QUOTE="Ja sa bong,  post: 16655, member: 30"]Arman Tsarukyan dropping from fighting Islam Makhachev in UFC 311 was not a surprise to me because he started making some off comments before the fight about his head not being in the game or whatever he said. 

What's more disappointing is how and the time he pulled out in 24 hours to fight night. He's a big chicken and is afraid of Islam Makhachev.[/QUOTE]
It's understandable to feel frustrated when a highly anticipated fight doesn't take place, especially when it happens so close to fight night. The comments Arman Tsarukyan made might have raised concerns about his mindset, and it can lead to speculation about his readiness to compete. 

However, it's important to remember that injuries can happen to anyone and often come unexpectedly. Labeling a fighter as "afraid" can oversimplify the situation. Fighters face immense pressure, and their health should always come first. Hopefully, Tsarukyan will come back stronger, and fans can look forward to his future fights.
