While he is an undisputed UFC top fighter, Arman Tsarukyan is also seen by many as one of the bad boys in combat sports. And, last Saturday (28), in Arizona (USA), the Armenian confirmed this status by starring in a new controversy. At RAF 6, a wrestling event, the athlete got angry with Georgio Poullas and assaulted him, generating a general brawl between the teams. And, apparently, 'Ahalkalakets' does not regret his attitude.
On the contrary, on his official 'X' account, Tsarukyan showed pride in having taught his rival respect. Not satisfied, the Armenian, who won the fight, even mocked Poullas, who left the altercation injured and bleeding. It's worth noting that, before the fight, the American constantly provoked the UFC top fighter and, on the mat, tried to strike his head more than once.

In response, Tsarukyan slapped his opponent in the face, who immediately complained. Then, Poullas pushed the Armenian, who became annoyed, increasing the tension in the duel. At the end of the fight, the athlete did not forgive the American, knocked him down and landed a punch on his face. And the UFC top fighter's behavior is not surprising, since it wasn't the first time he showed his 'hot-headed' side.
"Play with fire and find out," the fighter wrote.
Tsarukyan's moment in the UFC
Currently, Arman Tsarukyan does not have a fight scheduled in the UFC. The Armenian is ranked second in the lightweight division (up to 70,3 kg) of the organization and is considered by many to be the ideal fighter to dethrone champion Ilia Topuria , his rival.
