UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan denied the words of his trainer Marcos Da Matta, who said that his ward was injured 10 days before the fight with Islam Makhachev.
"Everything was fine, but on the last day, Wednesday after training, I went to bed and I started to feel discomfort in my lower back. The next day I thought it was going to be fine, and after the press conference, I started to burn weight. And when I got on the bike, my back was just jammed, I couldn't move."
