Tsarukyan named the only fighter who can defeat Makhachev

Dmitriy Kel Dec. 16, 2022, 3:05 a.m.

#9 in the UFC Lightweight Division Arman Tsarukyan believes that in the foreseeable future only he is capable of defeating the champion Islam Makhchev.

“Islam is on another level. He has a great wrestling, a good strike. I know one guy who can beat him. It's me. I will beat Damir Ismagulov and someone from the top 5 rating, after which the UFC will give me such an opportunity, since in my debut fight I gave Makhachev the most difficult fight of his career, ”the UFC press service quoted Tsarukyan as saying.

Recall that in April 2019, Tsarukyan took the fight with Makhachev on short notice and lost by unanimous decision.
