According to a post on X by Championship Rounds, Ardon supposedly never wanted to sue Arman Tsarukyan or White. Instead, he requested something else. This news comes via The Bloody Elbow where the fan said, “To answer Dana White’s comments about suing: I will not sue, that never crossed my mind. Thank you, Uncle Dana, for blessing us with an amazing 300 card… and can you bless me and my brothers up with tickets to UFC 303?”

Dana White had previously spoken about this altercation between the fan and the lightweight star. He had expressed concerns about a lawsuit but that doesn’t look likely to happen after Ardon’s recent comments.
White addresses the incident
During the post-fight conference, the reporters asked the UFC head honcho about this incident. He calmly stated, “Yeah, you might not want to hang over the things and grab people when they’re walking out. We’re probably gonna get sued. We’ll deal with that on Monday, too.” Arman Tsarukyan also addressed the same and declared that he wanted to punch the fan back.

He further stated, “So, like, no one shows me ‘fu*k you,’ no matter who you are, I’m gonna punch you in the face. You can like show me fu*k from two hundred meters then I won’t be able to punch you but when you are like close to me. It’s automatically you know I’m from like from Russia don’t do that please or I’m gonna go to prison in the US.” Nevertheless, the UFC 300 spectator took on the responsibility for his actions and laid out his suggestion to make things right between all parties.
The Russian secured a decisive victory against Charles Oliveira and this could lead to a fight against lightweight champ Islam Makhachev. After Tsarukyan’s victory against the Brazilian, Makhachev even congratulated the fighter on X with a promise to meet inside the Octagon. The stakes in the lightweight division continue to grow and Conor McGregor’s next fight could also ensure further developments. Nevertheless, what do you make of the UFC fan’s request to Dana White?
