Tsarukyan to Face Faber at RAF08 Wrestling Event

UFC lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan will face UFC legend Urijah Faber at the upcoming RAF08 wrestling event on April 18th in Philadelphia.

Arman Tsarukyan continues his active schedule outside the UFC with a confirmed bout against Urijah Faber at RAF08 on April 18th. The match comes after Tsarukyan's recent decision win over Georgio Poullas in a Real American Freestyle wrestling rematch.

The lightweight contender, who was previously expected to face Dillon Danis in a grappling match for Hype FC, is maintaining his conditioning while waiting for a potential UFC title shot. Tsarukyan has kept busy with wrestling and grappling events since his last Octagon appearance, staying ready to step in against either Ilia Topuria or Justin Gaethje if called upon.
