Ranked UFC Lightweight Arman Tsarukyan said that he had received an offer to take part in the preparation Alexandra Volkanovski for the upcoming fight against Islam Makhachev.

“He tried to connect me to his training camp. I refused, because there was no point, I understood that while I was not actively training.

And he didn’t even ask the conditions, although the manager Sayat first contacted me, then my friend Edwin, then another guy across America.

I don’t think it makes sense for me to be in his camp, even if there are dividends in the form of money. If I had preparation, if I understood that I would be replacing in Australia, then most likely I would go. And I had a vacation planned this year, I was not at home for eight or nine months, ”said Tsarukyan.

Recall that the fight between Makhachev and Volkanovski will take place on February 12 at UFC 284 in Perth, Australia. At stake in the meeting will be the lightweight title owned by the Russian.
