Arman Tsarukyan marks one year of non-MMA competition streak across multiple promotions

Exactly one year ago on May 2, 2025, Arman Tsarukyan competed in Karate Combat against Makkasharip Zaynukov, beginning what appeared to be a one-off appearance. Since then, Tsarukyan has competed nine more times across grappling, submission-only, and freestyle wrestling formats in four different leagues, not including MMA. He finished six of these ten bouts, submitting opponents including Mehdi, Freire, and Henderson. The RAF league has risen alongside Tsarukyan and wants him at every event, with two matches already scheduled two weeks apart. His social media 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, and his short videos regularly reach several million views while collaborating with Western stars.
