Ilia Topuria dominates Arman Tsarukyan Says UFC Contender: Tsarukyan is not “as good as people think”

Ilia Topuria will steamroll Arman Tsarukyan in an authoritative fashion if the two are matched up, per a former UFC lightweight title challenger. This was stated by Renato Moicano during an interview with @laertevianamma, with footage of the chat also shared to X account @ RedCorner_MMA. Moicano and Tsarukyan are tied together based on how the story of UFC 311 unfurled in January of this year at the eleventh hour.

Tsarukyan was set to contend for the lightweight championship against Islam Makhachev before withdrawing from the contest at the last minute, which created a vacancy for Moicano, who was submitted in the bout’s opening stanza by the Dagestani powerhouse.
