Media Arman is becoming a fan favourite

I dunno if it's really been endearing him to people who werent into him before, already. He seems like an asshole, who gotta puff his chest out 25/8 but he's talented as fuck and the Illia fight would be exquisite.
 
Heaps of UFC fans (not casuals) hate Dana and the ufc brass, hes become a dissident of sorts so hes getting fans.

Also Ilia has a turdish personality, and people want to see him lose, so this guy is their hope.
 
I can forgive screwing up the UFC event, but he seems like such a hothead maniac that it's hard to like him. He almost ruined another event headbutting Hooker at the stare downs. He never learns his lesson.

I do respect that he keeps training and entering random wrestling and jiu jitsu events while he's getting shunned by the UFC, because he really doesn't have to train or fight at all.
 
I feel like he went into overdrive trying to shill himself after his 2nd title shot started not being guaranteed and everything became up in the air. Don't blame him for trying, but it's a tall order to try to get to the level of Paddy or Gaethje. He has the best active record now, which helps.

Still, make no mistake, since June 2nd 2024 until now in 2026, if he gets the next LW title shot, he will have got 2 out of the last 3 since 2024. And he missed the 1st one to give us Moicano/Islam, ruining his LW legacy for final defense.
 
This whole era of streamers and people watching this goofy shit is retarded af

Thank God I grew up in the 80's and 90's.
On the flipside it gives him a voice when UFC wont put him on.

Arman is everywhere latley and he's done it on his own.

Sure, but he’s incredibly wealthy.

He doesn’t need the UFC to satisfy his competitive drive.

He can do anything he wants or compete anywhere he chooses.

He’s not tied to Dana or the UFC. He’s lucky in that sense, a free man.

Unlike most of the roster, he doesn’t rely on the UFC to make a living and get by.
 
I just love it that Dana and the brass can’t force him to take fights. That must really eat at Dana.

Love it.

I don't like the headbutt and stuff, but Arman doing a lot of grappling/wrestling (and winning) while being a top 3 LW atm is crazy.
 
He sucks and his fights are super boring
Yeah but in the really real world, fight fans who know anything worth a damn want to see this guy fighting the best in the world and dont want anything less at this point.

LW is a bit of cesspool of unlikable personalities.
  • Arman's rich D-bag attitude.
  • Topuria's smug version of Conor, while becoming an inactive twitter warrior.
  • Gaethje morphing from a just bleed icon to an entitled diva.
  • Paddy's scouser schtick (although he isn't as obnoxious as he used to be).
  • Chandler going full WWE.
At least we still have Charles and Max.
 
Arman has always been my boy. The pullout against Islam was annoying but if anything it’s been good for his career. He’ll get a title shot eventually, he’s too good not to.
