Arman Tsarukyan completes remarkable year with 10 grappling bouts across leagues

Exactly one year ago on May 2, 2025, Arman Tsarukyan competed in Karate Combat against Makkasharip Zainukov, which seemed like a one-time appearance. Since then, Tsarukyan has competed 10 additional times across various rule sets including grappling, submission-only, and freestyle wrestling in four different promotions, not including MMA. He finished 6 of 10 opponents, submitting tough competitors like Mehdi, Freire, and Henderson. The RAF league has grown significantly alongside Tsarukyan and wants him at every event, having already scheduled two bouts just two weeks apart. His social media presence has doubled in followers over the year, his Telegram channel grew from zero to over 100,000 subscribers, his vlogs accumulated over 5 million views total, and his short videos regularly reach several million views each.
