Arman Tsarukyan’s Real American Freestyle side quest took a nasty turn.
Following the conclusion of the co-main event of RAF 6 in Tempe, Ariz., Tsarukyan attacked opponent Georgio Poullas, pushing Poullas to the ground and throwing punches at him like he was in the UFC octagon and not on a wrestling mat.
Watch MMA Fighting’s footage of the incident below.
Tsarukyan’s actions immediately caused numerous people around the stage to rush in and become involved in the brawl. It’s unclear exactly why the top UFC lightweight contender, who defeated Poullas 5-3 felt compelled to assault his opponent after the final bell, but his fellow fighters were certainly amused.
Former UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad perhaps summed it up best, writing on Twitter, “Arman don’t play haha.”
Fellow UFC fighter Terrance McKinney added, “Y’all Arman be tripping lol like he got roid rage,” while former Bellator fighter Cody Bollinger declared, “Arman a menace.”
