Crisis averted! Arman Tsarukyan, who spent the last two years of his MMA career in lightweight purgatory, appears to have finally earned another crack at the 155-pound crown after fumbling the bag in his first attempt at UFC 311 back…
Arman Tsarukyan defeated fellow lightweight contender Mauricio Ruffy via a standing elbow knockout in the co-main event of UFC 331. The event took place on Saturday, September 19, 2026, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Following his victory, Tsarukyan expressed his desire for a lightweight title shot or a fight against Mark Zuckerberg.
With this victory, Tsarukyan aims to secure another chance at the 155-pound championship after his previous attempt at UFC 311 in early 2025. His performance helps him stand out in the division ahead of other potential contenders, including former champions Ilia Topuria and Charles Oliveira.
