Quick read

Shovkhal has issued a unique challenge to Arman Tsarukyan during a social interaction captured on video. Shovkhal offered Tsarukyan 500,000 rubles if the UFC lightweight can score a point against him in wrestling within one minute. The challenge appears to be related to Shovkhal's upcoming wrestling match with an Olympic champion. When Tsarukyan asked for clarification about dollars versus rubles, Shovkhal confirmed the bet is in rubles. Tsarukyan accepted the challenge, and Shovkhal even offered to give up a leg position. The playful exchange was filmed by Nika Kelekhsashvili and appears to be part of ongoing banter between the two fighters.
