Arman Tsarukyan likes his chances against Charles Oliveira: ‘I’m gonna smash him easy’

Arman Tsarukyan is looking forward to the day he gets to step inside the Octagon with former lightweight world champion Charles Oliveira.

Tsarukyn, who currently sits in the No. 8 spot in the 155-pound rankings, will look to score his 20th career win on Saturday night as he heads to The APEX in Las Vegas for a clash with Joaquim Silva. A win over Silva will keep Tsarukyan moving up the lightweight division ladder in hopes of landing a fight with one of the promotion’s most prolific finishers, Charles Oliveira.

Appearing at the Fight Night media event, Arman Tsurkyan spoke about UFC 289’s co-main event contest between Oliveira and Beneil Dariush.
