Taking on Ruffy Tsarukyan will face Mauricio Ruffy in the co-main event at UFC 331 on Sep. 19 in a five-round lightweight bout, Marcel Dorff of Heavy on Sports reports.

Impact While there's a fair argument for saying Tsarukyan should be fighting for a belt, a win here would certainly make him a lock for a title in his next fight. One of the best lightweights in the sport, Tsarukyan will return to the octagon after being listed as the backup for the lightweight title fight between Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje at the UFC Freedom 250 card on June 14 at the White House. Tsarukyan owns an excellent 11-2 record in the UFC ranks.

Backup for White House card Tsarukyan has been confirmed by UFC President Dana White to be the backup for the lightweight title fight between Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje at the UFC Freedom 250 card on Jun...

Impact Some fighters don't like to go this route given it often leads to an extra, unnecessary weight cut, but given Tsarukyan's laundry list of outside-the-cage antics that have often put him in hot water with White and UFC brass, this could potentially be the best (or only) path to Tsarukyan for a title shot at the moment. As the No. 2-ranked contender at lightweight, Tsarukyan will almost certainly see the winner of this headline matchup in his next fight, especially given he's riding a five-fight winning streak that features three finishes and two POTN bonuses. But stepping in here gives him a slight chance at getting that belt earlier while ensuring the UFC will keep the main event of its flagship card in tact.
