Dariush supported Tsarukyan's decision to punch a fan at UFC 300

American UFC lightweight Beneil Dariush spoke out about the scandalous incident involving Arman Tsarukyan at the UFC 300 tournament held last weekend in Las Vegas, USA.

Recall that during Tsarukyan's entrance to the bout against Charles Oliveira, one of the fans decided to show the Armenian a middle finger - Arman responded by trying to punch him in the face.

"I haven't had any incidents like that in my career. But, you know, if Arman wanted to react to that, I respect his decision. I'll be honest with you. I'm a devout Christian, I don't recognize violence. But at the same time, part of me understands that people don't want to be abused, to be disrespected. Especially in moments like the one Armand was in. I wouldn't have done the same, but I respect his decision, I understand why he did it," Dariusz told Submission Radio.
