Arman Tsarukyan, the No. 1 ranked lightweight in the UFC, has spoken out about the upcoming boxing bout between legendary Mike Tyson and blogger-boxer Jake Paul. According to Tsarukyan, Tyson has a chance of winning given the rules under which the fight will take place.

Arman Tsarukyan, the number one UFC lightweight ranking, named his favorite fighter as a child. According to Arman, he admired not Fedor Emelianenko, but Khabib Nurmagomedov.
"No. Khabib. When I was growing up, Khabib was in his peak form. Do we communicate with him? No, we know each other, but I don't know him too well. I can't call him and tell him anything. We're not friends. But I really like his behavior, his lifestyle," Tsarukyan said in an interview with Michael Bisping.
Earlier, Tsarukyan announced his rating of the best MMA fighters in history, putting Jon Jones in first place. Khabib in this rating was only in fifth place.
UFC lightweight division number oneArman Tsarukyan explained why Islam Makhachev, the promotion's champion at that weight, will not surpass Khabib Nurmagomedov.
"Not yet. Because Islam has never defended the title against a lightweight. Volkanovski is good, but he's too short and small, from a different division. Lightweights are completely different fighters. Let's see how Makhachev will look against the real lightweight Porier. If you compare, Khabib is ranked above Makhachev. But Islam keeps fighting and can break all records. But I won't let him do it (smiles). That's what I'm here for," Tsarukyan said in an interview with Michael Bisping.
Recall, Tsarukyan and Makhachev met in the octagon, and then Islam won by unanimous decision of judges.
Former absolute world heavyweight champion legendary Mike Tyson told how his preparation for his upcoming boxing fight with boxer-blogger Jake Paul is going. According to Mike, he hasn't smoked for six weeks now.
"Six weeks I don't smoke and I don't have sex. Why? Discipline. You know, discipline - do what you love to do, do what you hate to do, but do it like you enjoy it," Forbes quoted Tyson as saying.
The confrontation between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will take place on July 21 in Arlington (USA). Earlier it became known that the fight will be of an exhibition nature.
Recall, in November 2020 Tyson has already held an exhibition fight against Roy Jones. That fight ended in a draw.
Arman Tsarukyan, the number one ranked lightweight in the UFC, told how to beat the organization's current lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. According to Tsarukyan, Makhachev must be fought in the standup.
"We have to go out and fight, interrupt him in the standup. You have to put the right gameplan and beat him. That's it. Is there any chance to outscore Makhachev in wrestling? I already did. I tried to move him, spent a lot of energy on it, although I was much better in the stand-up. There is no point in it," said the fighter.
Tsarukyan had his last fight on April 14. He won a split decision over former promotion's lightweight champion Charles Oliveira at the UFC 300 anniversary event
UFC Armenian lightweight Arman Tsarukyan has compiled his top 5 best fighters in mixed martial arts history.
Former three-weight champion Vasyl Lomachenko made the first comment upon arriving in Australia for his bout with George Kambososos.
UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira of Brazil backed compatriot Charles Oliveira, who lost a split decision to Arman Tsarukyan on April 13 at UFC 300 and forfeited his chance to get a rematch with current lightweight division leader Islam Makhachev.
"I went through something similar. Now he has to see what mistakes were made. Sometimes we don't lose because we made mistakes during the fight. Charles needs to see what he has to change.
No one knows what he's been through outside of the fighting world. It's important that he realizes what needs to be fixed and tries to do it," Pereira told Laerte Viana.
Ukrainian lightweight Denis Berinchik (18-0, 9 KOs) told how he is going to act in the upcoming fight with Mexican Emanuel Navarrete (38-1-1, 31 KOs).
The meeting of these fighters, at the stake of which will be the vacant WBO title, will take place on May 18 in San Diego, USA.
- Denis, taking into account how much time you've spent on physical training, I'll hazard a guess that your bet for this fight is to cosplay Muhammad Ali - "flutter like a butterfly and sting like a bee". Am I right?
- As Mike Tyson used to say, you can plan and think anything. But it all works until the first punch misses. We're going to do our best: fight, defend, throw combinations. The plan for the fight is to box the way I can box.
