Makhachev's coach called Tsarukyan's actions correct

"You know, such a decision by Tsarukyan is the right signal. He is the main contender now, why lose the opportunity to prepare well? He presented himself with a bright victory over Charles Oliveira. I think Arman did the right thing. Although, for example, Max Holloway in a similar situation would probably say, "I'm in," Mendes said in an interview with Submission Radio.

Recall, Tsarukyan fought on April 14, and then he was offered to fight Makhachev on June 1, to which he refused.
