Tsarukyan meets with Alvarez in New Jersey, teases welterweight rematch

Arman Tsarukyan met with Yoel Alvarez in New Jersey and proposed an intriguing future scenario. Tsarukyan joked about their size difference and suggested Alvarez take the 170-pound belt while he captures the 155-pound title, then they could run a rematch. The two previously fought in February 2022, when Tsarukyan stopped Alvarez via ground-and-pound TKO in the second round. Since that loss, Alvarez has been undefeated and is now competing at welterweight, where he secured a victory over Vicente Luque in October. The lighthearted exchange hints at the possibility of a future clash between the two fighters.
