Arman Tsarukyan Backs Charles Oliveira, Targets UFC 326 BMF Winner

He frames the BMF belt as his clearest path forward given an expected TopuriaGaethje title unifier.

Overview

  • Max Holloway defends the BMF title against Charles Oliveira at UFC 326 on March 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
  • Tsarukyan says he leans toward Oliveira, noting the Brazilian’s volatility but backing him to prevail.
  • After edging Oliveira by split decision at UFC 300, Tsarukyan seeks a rematch to deliver a decisive finish and validate that result.
  • He signals willingness to face the UFC 326 winner and sets his sights on the BMF title.
  • With Justin Gaethje expected to unify his interim belt with champion Ilia Topuria next, and after a late injury withdrawal from a scheduled title fight stalled his run, Tsarukyan is pivoting toward the BMF route.
