Arman Tsarukyan had some selection words for Georgio Poullas after their altercation at RAF Wrestling, they usually weren’t “I’m sorry”.
The primary contender within the UFC lightweight division has been staying lively with a series of striking-free matches across various promotions and disciplines as he awaits his next official fight offer from the promotion.
But he ended up throwing a number of punches tonight at RAF06 when his wrestling match with Poullas got just a little too heated and he ended up showing his rival just why he’s such a highly-ranked fighter. And after the very fact, he doesn’t seem in any respect contrite about what happened.

Arman Tsarukyan speaks out for the primary time after RAF06 brawl
Very shortly after all the things went down between Arman Tsarukyan and Georgio Poullas, the UFC star’s Instagram page collaborated on a post with Full Violence. The video showed Poullas bragging that he couldn’t be taken down, before being spliced with a clip of Tsarukyan doing just that.
The legitimacy of the takedown is disputed and he wasn’t scored as having landed it throughout the match regardless that it was a transparent move. As a substitute of receiving the 2 points he would have gotten for a takedown, he as an alternative got one for pushing his opponent out of bounds.
Tsarukyan and Full Violence captioned the post by simply writing that it was “One other side quest complete.” Nonetheless, his very first statement got here on X, when the lightweight wrote: “F— around and discover.”

While it stays to be seen how legitimate Poullas’ post-match video was where he seemed to be speaking from an ambulance, the wrestling standout was clearly hurt within the brawl. Photos shared from backstage by the account Grappling Reels clearly showed him bleeding from the nose.
Within the ambulance video, which was the second of his responses after a video together with his family where he seemed perfectly wonderful in a locker room, Poullas said: “Alright I need to send a message to all my fans and supporters.
“I need to thanks guys, I hope you guys got some enjoyment out of the match tonight. Unfortunately I used to be jumped.
“But as you guys saw, my 62-year-old dad and each my brothers got here to my rescue. That’s the way in which we were brought as much as fight for one another regardless of what. We were outnumbered by like 12 Armenians they usually got here on the market running, fighting with me, fighting for me.
“In order that’s f—ing love, that’s how we were raised. To Arman, you’re just a little b—- and by the way in which if you happen to watch the match I’m the one one which got the takedown. He got a push out and a few penalty points, I’m still the champ baby.”
