Arman Tsarukyan is a 28-year-old professional fighter competing in the lightweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Tsarukyan is an Armenian-Russian subject who started his career early in freestyle wrestling and later switched to ice hockey.

Starting his professional career in 2015, the 28-year-old fighter boasts a record of 22 wins and 3 losses in mixed martial arts. Before signing up with the UFC, Arman Tsarukyan had competed in numerous promotions, ranging from MFP (where he was a former lightweight champion) to Road FC.
