Arman Tsarukyan marks one year since phenomenal multi-discipline run began

Exactly one year ago, on May 2, 2025, Arman Tsarukyan competed in Karate Combat against Makkasharip Zainukov, which seemed like a one-time event. Since then, Tsarukyan has competed 9 more times across various disciplines including grappling, submission-only, and freestyle wrestling in four different leagues, not counting MMA. Only 4 of his 10 matches went to decision, with notable submission victories over tough opponents including Mehdi, Freire, and Henderson. The RAF league has grown significantly alongside Tsarukyan and now wants him at every event, with two matches already scheduled just two weeks apart. His social media presence has also exploded, doubling his followers, growing his Telegram channel from zero to over 100,000 subscribers, producing vlogs that have accumulated over 5 million views, and creating daily short videos garnering several million views each.
