Arman Tsarukyan Completes Year of Cross-Combat Activity Since Karate Combat

Exactly one year ago on May 2, 2025, Arman Tsarukyan competed in Karate Combat against Makkasharip Zaynukov, which appeared to be a one-time event. Since then, Tsarukyan has competed nine additional times under various rulesets including grappling, submission-only, and freestyle wrestling across four different promotions, not counting MMA. Only four of his ten contests went to decision, with notable submission victories over Mehdi, Freire, and Henderson. The RAF promotion has grown significantly alongside Tsarukyan and now wants him at every event, with two bouts already scheduled just two weeks apart. His social media presence has doubled in followers over the year, his Telegram channel has grown from zero to over 100,000 subscribers, and his vlogs have collectively garnered more than 5 million views.
