Tsarukyan does not believe in Chimaev's attack on U.S. Air Force veteran

Alexandr Ormanji March 4, 2026, 2:50 a.m.

Arman Tsarukyan, a ranked UFC lightweight, commented on rumors that Khamzat Chimaev attacked U.S. Air Force veteran Rich Patterson with fists at Dubai airport.

“I haven't talked to him about it. I have no idea. But I don't think it's true. There are a lot of rumors about him, but Khamzat is very calm and never attacks first. I don't know what would have to happen for Khamzat to hit someone, because he is strong. Chimaev knows he has a big name, and he doesn't let anything go past him except in cases where someone says something about him, his family,” Sportskeeda reports Tsarukyan's words.
