BIOGRAPHY

Arman Tsarukyan is one of the hottest upcoming names in the UFC. He is a Russian-born mixed martial artist and former freestyle wrestler, currently competing in the lightweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Born on 1 February 1996, Tsarukyan began his combat sports career wrestling at an early age.

Tsarukyn’s professional MMA career began in 2017, when he signed with Gladiator Fighting Series – a regional promotion based out of Russia. Before being signed to the UFC roster in 2018, he had accumulated an impressive 10-1 record as an amateur fighter with 8 wins by submission and 2 by knockout. His debut fight for GFS was against Anton Tumasov; it ended up being stopped due to doctor stoppage after Arman landed several unanswered punches while his opponent lay helplessly on the ground resulting in a TKO victory. Over time this would go on to become his signature win condition and earned him praise within local fighting circles as well as recognition from wider MMA communities worldwide. Following this victory, Arman won nine consecutive fights before signing for Bellator Moscow where he beat Felipe Silva via Unanimous Decision win thus earning him a championship belt from GFS promotion which only further cements his rise amongst peers within MMA world rankings today!

Since joining UFC roster back in 2018, Arman has compiled two victories over Magomed Mustafaev via unanimous decision victory at Fight Night 149 held April 2019 followed soon after by split decision win against Islam Makhachev at UFC 242 also during 2019 year! Both performances were highly praised both online/offline alike leading some even dubbing him “The Eagle” – A fitting moniker given how fast & agile movements inside octagon which have helped craft such impressive record so far into young fighter’s career! With four more fights planned throughout 2020 season we can’t wait see what legendary heights Arman will reach next few months ahead…
