Arman Tsarukyan set for fifth appearance under RAF banner

Arman Tsarukyan isn’t interested in remaining idle as he awaits word on his next UFC bout. The lightweight contender has booked his fifth match under the Real American Freestyle banner, as he will square off against wrestling influencer Keelon Jimison — better known as “Mugzy” — at RAF 9 on May 30 in Dallas. The organization announced the pairing on Tuesday.

RAF 9 is headlined by a heavyweight matchup pitting Gable Steveson against Alexander Romanov and airs via Fox Nation. No UFC, No Problem Tsarukyan is 4-0 in RAF competition since January, earning victories over the likes of Lance Palmer , Georgio Poullas (twice) and Urijah Faber . Since his most recent Octagon appearance, a first-round submission of Dan Hooker at UFC Qatar this past November, the 29-year-old Russian has competed in a couple of grappling matches in addition to his prolific efforts in RAF.

“Mugzy” has competed twice for the wrestling promotion, losing to Poullas at RAF 5 while besting UFC veteran Clay Guida at RAF 6. Arman vs Mugzy 🤯 Tickets in bio. Stream exclusively on @foxnation https://t.
