Arman Tsarukyan always sees himself as the man at the front of the competitors’ line in the light division.
Last January, Tsarukyan was supposed to challenge the champion of light weights Islam Makhachev in the main event of the UFC 311. Unfortunately for Tsarukyan, he was forced by an injury of the fight week and replaced by Renato Moicano, which Makhachev defeated.
Subsequently, the CEO of the UFC, Dana White, said that Tsarukyan had missed his chance and that he should make his way to the title, a suggestion with which Tsarukyan agreed. It seems that he had the perfect name in mind as he targeted the match with Justin Gaethje on social networks.
Gaethje comes from an impressive decision victory against Rafael Fiziev last Saturday at the UFC 313 and he asserted his file for a title shot in a marking Tweet White. Tsarukyan quoted Gaethje’s tweet and replied: “You barely spent n ° 11 within a short time, and before that, you were sent to the shadow kingdom. If you really want to be candidate n ° 1 and fight for the belt, you must first do without me.
If the timing did not work, Gaethje would probably have already won another shot in the light title after a spectacular kick of Dustin Poirier at the UFC 291. However, Poirier rebounded with a victory and ended up by Gaethje, in Gaethje, to make Gaethje to Max Holloway to UFC 300 via the dramatic.
Tsarukyan obtained his championship opportunity on the strength of a 9-1 race, with a sign of the head shared on Charles Oliveira during his last outing. He lost his UFC debut against Makhachev in April 2019 and finally tried to enter the octagon for a revenge match with the high light weight.
