Tsarukyan Ready to Face Chandler and Oliveira Before Fighting for UFC Title

Armenian UFC lightweight fighter Arman Tsarukyan expressed his willingness to face any opponent to secure another title shot.

Tsarukyan had previously pulled out of a bout against UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev due to a back injury. Renato Moicano stepped in on short notice but lost to Makhachev via submission in the first round on January 19 at UFC 311.

I can beat everybody. If they want me to beat Chandler and then beat Oliveira again and then fight for the title with Islam, I am down.

UFC President Dana White had previously stated that after Tsarukyan’s withdrawal from the bout against Makhachev, Arman would not be fighting for a title any time soon. Tsarukyan holds a record of 22 wins and three losses.
