What's Next: UFC 311 Losers
Briefly

UFC 311's opening event of 2025 faced significant hurdles, yet ultimately showcased an impressive array of fights. While Islam Makhachev triumphed over Renato Moicano in the main event, Arman Tsarukyan's disheartening back injury led to his withdrawal, jeopardizing his title aspirations. Dana White confirmed Tsarukyan would not receive an automatic title shot due to the setback, emphasizing the importance of his next fight. Potential matchups include the victor of the upcoming Gaethje and Hooker bout, indicating that Tsarukyan’s next steps are critical for his career trajectory.
Arman Tsarukyan fumbled one of the biggest opportunities of his career thanks to an untimely back injury just hours prior to Friday's weigh-ins.
It's imperative that Arman get a good result in his next fight. It'll likely be a tough opponent and he will need a finish of some kind to be booked for a title shot once again.
