UFC lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan has made it clear that he would be ready to turn around and fight Ilia Topuria on UFC’s debut Paramount card in January if he’s able to defeat Dan Hooker this weekend.
On Saturday night, Arman Tsarukyan will go head to head with Dan Hooker in the main event of UFC Qatar. It’s a fight that has been brewing for a while now, and while Arman is the clear favorite, counting out Hooker has been a mistake that many have made in the past. Tsarukyan knows that if he wins, and is able to do so convincingly, he could well set himself up for a world title opportunity against Ilia Topuria.
