Exactly one year ago, on May 2, 2025, Arman Tsarukyan began a remarkable run by competing in Karate Combat against Makkasharip Zainukov. Since then, Tsarukyan has competed 9 more times across various rule sets including grappling, submission-only, and freestyle wrestling in four different promotions, not counting MMA. Only 4 of his 10 matches went to decision, with notable submission victories over Mehdi, Friere, and Henderson. The RAF league has scheduled him for two fights 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, and his vlogs have accumulated more than 5 million views.
