RAF Wrestling boss makes the case for dream match UFC cannot make

Arman Tsarukyan and Colby Covington appear to have been told they’ll’t wrestle by the UFC – but Chad Bronstein plans to alter that.

The highest lightweight contender has been taking over all comers in a world tour of non-fighting activity that has seen him compete six times since his last octagon outing against Dan Hooker at UFC Qatar in November. He has grown exponentially as a star through appearances – in addition to some impressive wins.

Does Arman Tsarukyan deserve his spot in the highest 10, if not, who would you replace him with?🤔

Arman Tsarukyan is currently one of the crucial popular fighters on the earth.

Now, Tsarukyan desires to tackle former interim welterweight champion Colby Covington who can be awaiting a return to fighting. And despite the undeniable fact that it’s an unattainable fight for the UFC to make attributable to weights, they look like held back from doing it in RAF Wrestling attributable to some promotional red tape.

Chad Bronstein reveals plan to make Arman Tsarukyan vs Colby Covington a reality

With Arman Tsarukyan set to return this Saturday at RAF08 in Philadelphia against Urijah Faber and Colby Covington coming back on May 30 at RAF09, each men are staying energetic. They’d a transient confrontation following their co-headlining victories over Georgio Poullas and Dillon Danis last month.

Nonetheless, UFC bosses aren’t keen on seeing matchups between energetic competitors from their roster during their outside activities. Now, RAF Wrestling boss Chad Bronstein is making the case for why this is able to be a terrific exception.

“I haven’t really talked to Hunter [Campbell] about Colby and Arman yet,” Bronstein told Bloody Elbow in an exclusive chat ahead of this weekend’s show live to tell the tale Fox Nation. “They wish to wrestle one another and so they’ve been talking about it.

“The thing is that Colby and Arman won’t ever fight within the UFC, ever. They’re two different weight classes within the UFC and it’s just not going to occur… We’re not competitive to UFC, I feel it’s a terrific additive approach for everyone.”

Bronstein also noted how easy he has found working with Tsarukyan, who’s often known as something of a ‘bad boy’ within the UFC. He expects him to be an everyday face on their shows, starting this weekend against legendary bantamweight Faber.
