Arman Tsarukyan, a UFC fighter with a wealthy background, is making waves with his bold tactics to secure a fight against Ilia Topuria. Unlike many fighters who rise from humble beginnings, Tsarukyan's luxurious lifestyle has drawn criticism, but it hasn't stopped him from pursuing his goals in the octagon.
Recently, Tsarukyan put a massive $3. 5 million on the line to challenge Topuria. This move came after Topuria listed his luxurious Madrid home for sale, which included a gym, spa, and 24/7 security. Tsarukyan took to social media, offering to buy Topuria's house if he agreed to the fight. This creative taunt has turned into a must-see drama in the MMA world.
Topuria has been vocal about not wanting to fight Tsarukyan, even threatening to vacate his title if forced to face him. However, Tsarukyan's persistence shows he won't be ignored. He believes he is the rightful number one contender and is demanding his shot at the title.
After UFC 324, where Justin Gaethje impressed against Paddy Pimblett, Tsarukyan remained calm despite being snubbed. He criticized the rankings, stating that Pimblett was pushed up without earning his spot. Tsarukyan praised Gaethje for his heart and willingness to fight him, showing respect for his opponent.
If Gaethje also refuses to fight him, Tsarukyan has a backup plan. He has calculated everything and feels ready to move into the featherweight division to chase the belt. This strategic thinking shows Tsarukyan's determination to secure his place in the UFC.
