RAF has made a mark in combat sports by pitting UFC fighters against internet personalities, creating events that draw major attention. The rivalry between Arman Tsarukyan and Georgio Poullas is intense after their first meeting ended in a brawl. The two are now set to rematch at RAF 07 just a month after their first match. Tensions rose when Poullas dragged influencer Nina Drama into the trash talk.

Their first meeting occurred at RAF 06, where Tsarukyan and Poullas faced off in the co‑main event. Tsarukyan won the wrestling match by a 5–3 decision after scoring key takedowns. Immediately after the final bell, the Armenian UFC lightweight shoved Poullas and then struck him while he was on the ground, igniting a chaotic melee involving members of both teams.

They are now set to rematch at RAF 07 at the Yuengling Center on the University of South Florida campus. At the pre-fight press conference, both exchanged repeated shots, escalating tensions publicly and visibly. During betting talks, Tsarukyan suggested a $10,000 wager, and Poullas called Nina Drama his girlfriend and asked if he could take her out, prompting an immediate outburst from the Armenian.

My girlfriend? Guys, you never ask about family, Don’t ask about family, mums, sisters, and girls too. If someone gonna talk about that, you’re going to be dead. I don’t care if this is RAF or UFC belt. If you’re gonna touch my family, you’re going to be dead and you too, shut your mouth and be respectful for the girls, okay? You can talk about me but not my friends.

The two fighters have been making bets since their first meeting, adding a competitive edge to their rivalry. Poullas is known for offering $1,000 to anyone who can take him down. Before RAF 06, Tsarukyan jokingly acknowledged Poullas’ physique and offered him a bodyguard role if he lost. However, those comments were humorous, and Tsarukyan’s recent statements suggest a more serious tone.

The two have been at each other’s throats since their first meeting, with tensions escalating after the sudden brawl at RAF 06. Poullas posted a video from the ambulance, wearing a neck brace, calling out Tsarukyan for allegedly cheating and attacking him, his father, and his brothers. However, Tsarukyan viewed the reaction as an exaggerated response to the influencer wrestler’s antics during the match.

Arman Tsarukyan has long kept his family and relationships private, rarely showing them publicly. He is often seen living a luxury lifestyle alongside his father, Nairi Tsarukyan, an Armenian business tycoon. This strong sense of privacy may explain why Georgio Poullas’s comments about Nina Drama triggered such a sharp response. The rematch at RAF 07 now unfolds under intense scrutiny and growing attention.

Daniele has strong friendships with several top MMA fighters and often features them on her streams. Arman Tsarukyan is a regular presence, frequently appearing in her content during travels and activities. Their collaborations have contributed to her growing influence within the sport. However, after Georgio Poullas made a demeaning remark about her at the RAF 07 presser, Daniele confronted him publicly.

Georgio, what was that? That was disrespectful. You were nice in the lobby and I took a picture, and I was trying to be respectful. I didn’t like that.

Daniele was previously linked to controversy surrounding Arman Tsarukyan’s withdrawal from UFC 311, after he appeared performing stunts on her stream days before he pulled out due to a back injury. The situation led to scrutiny over his activities outside of competition. However, that issue has since settled as the Armenian star and Nina Drama now share a positive friendship and continue to collaborate publicly.
