The co-main event of the recent UFC Fight Night was electric. Arman Tsarukyan took on Joaquim Silva and emerged victorious. Upon witnessing his dominant victory, fans on Twitter desperately felt the need to express their thoughts on Tsarukyan’s career.

The fight between Arman Tsarukyan and Joaquim Silva was fairly dominant in favor of the Armenian-Russian fighter. However, in the second round ‘Ahalkalakets’ was hit with a brutal hook that dropped him. This met a downfall from the dominant wrestling and striking that was displayed earlier in the fight. Despite the adversaries, the tide turned in Arman’s favor.
Although he was dropped, Arman Tsarukyan recovered from the brutal hook. In the third round, the Armenian-Russian fighter brutalized his opponent with a vicious ground and pound. Although Silva attempted to maneuver through the blows, Brazilian fighter Joaquim Silva’s attempts fell through. Ultimately, the referee stopped the fight, and ‘Ahalkalakets’ emerged victorious.
In the post-fight speech, Arman Tsarukyan called out Islam Makhachev. ‘Ahalkalakets’ wants to fight the Russian champion in his next bout. He demanded eight weeks of training camp to beat Makhachev. Similar to Tsarukyan, fans were equally thrilled after the call-out.
