Arman Tsarukyan opens up about potential Paddy Pimblett fight

Arman Tsarukyan missed his first opportunity to compete for the lightweight title at UFC 311 due to a back injury. Since CEO Dana White has been strict about not granting him an immediate title shot, Tsarukyan has been considering potential opponents.

In a recent interview with Red Corner MMA, 'Akhalkalakets' expressed his desire to face Paddy Pimblett, stating:

"Paddy, he looked very good in his last fight, and now we can say he can beat top 10 fighters. I don't know, so he's #8 or something, and he's not gonna fight very soon. Maybe he wants to fight at the end of this year, but I wanna fight this summer and then at the end of this year."

He added:

"Yeah, I'll take that [a fight against Pimblett]. I'll take that because he has a big name. He just beat Michael Chandler, and he has a six or seven [fight] win streak. He's never lost in the UFC, so it makes sense to get back and get more fans from the U.K."
