In line for title shot after easy win Tsarukyan defeated Mauricio Ruffy via KO (elbow) at 4:56 of Round 1 at UFC 331 on Saturday in Los Angeles.

Impact The UFC continues to put Tsarukyan through the paces, but it will be impossible to not award him a title shot after this latest win. He was able to dispatch Ruffy without issue despite never truly being able to get his trademark wrestling game going. Arman landed just 1-of-10 takedown attempts, but he was still able to consistently pin Ruffy along the fence. That positioning advantage allowed him to drop his opponent with a brutal elbow to the face late in Round 1 which ended the fight on the spot. Arman is now 11-2 with the UFC, with his first defeat coming against Islam Makhachev in his company debut back in April 2019. Tsarukyan v. Justin Gaethje should be coming to a theatre near you at some point in 2027.
