Arman
Tsarukyan will return to compete on Real American Freestyle
less than two weeks after his next
Ultimate Fighting Championship bout.

The UFC lightweight is scheduled to face Dillon
Danis at RAF 14 on Oct. 3 at Fontainebleau in Las Vegas. The
wrestling promotion recently announced that the match will be
contested for the RAF middleweight crossover championship. The news
comes less than one week after the UFC announced Tsarukyan (23-3)
will face Mauricio
Ruffy (14-2) at UFC
331 on Sept. 19 in Los Angeles.

Arman Tsarukyan and Dillon Danis have MMA assignments before
RAF clash

Tsarukyan has fought just once in 2024 and once in 2025, with his
latest victory in mixed martial arts coming against Dan Hooker in
November last year. However, he’s competed in 15 wrestling and
submission grappling matches over the last two years, going
unbeaten in all but one. In his last wrestling match under the RAF
banner, he was outpointed by Colby
Covington.

He has collected victories over Lance
Palmer, Georgio Poullas, Urijah
Faber, Keelon
Jimison, Tony
Ferguson and Kuat
Khamitov in RAF so far. His next outing will be against Danis
in October at RAF 14 in Las Vegas. Danis will attempt to snap a
two-fight losing streak under the RAF banner. The jiu jitsu
specialist lost to Covington in March before falling to former UFC
middleweight champion Khamzat
Chimaev in June.

Before returning to RAF, Tsarukyan will face Ruffy at UFC 331.
Danis will also compete in MMA before meeting Tsarukyan, as he is
booked to face Mike Perry
in the Duel Arena 1 main event on Aug. 29 in Orlando, Florida,
looking to extend his record to 4-0.
