Since then, Tsarukyan has stayed active outside the UFC, competing six times in various grappling and wrestling events. He’s kept busy and continued to build his profile across different combat sports. Arman Tsarukyan‘s rise to stardom has come as somewhat of a surprise as he has never been a particularly popular fighter in the UFC, but that has quickly changed.

His friendship with Nina Drama has gone viral, even if it’s stirred up a fair bit of controversy along the way. Together with his appearances on Nina Drama’s streams, Tsarukyan often pops up on Neon’s broadcasts too, offering fans another look at his personality away from fighting.
This Thursday, he joined Clavicular’s stream and shared a story about a street fight he found himself in while visiting Estonia. “Once I went to a European city in Estonia, I went there with my friend to see the old downtown, and some drunk people started talking to my friend and he started fighting,” Tsarukyan told Clavicular. “There were like six or seven drunk guys and my friend was a Muay Thai fighter as well, so it was me and him vs like six or seven people on the main street.
