Arman Tsarukyan Is Rooting for Justin Gaethje Because Paddy Pimblett Would “Avoid” Him

Arman Tsarukyan wants Justin Gaethje to stop Paddy Pimblett at UFC 324 and become a two-time interim UFC lightweight champion.

Tsarukyan and Pimblett have been taking nonstop digs at each other in the past few months. Recently, ‘Ahalkalakets,’ after beating Lance Palmer by tech fall at RAF 5, appeared in an interview with Helen Yee. Yee asked Tsarukyan who he would favor in the UFC 324 headliner, and the Armenian revealed that he would be rooting for ‘The Highlight’ as he believes that if Pimblett wins, he will avoid a matchup with Tsarukyan, something that Topuria has done in the past year.
