Arman Tsarukyan makes his pick for UFC 326: Max Holloway Vs. Charles Oliveira 2

Arman Tsarukyan has given his thoughts on the headliner of UFC 326 which will see Max Holloway defend his BMF title against Charles Oliveira in a rematch.

Tsarukyan, who teamed with Oliveira at UFC 300 in 2024, won the three-round fight via split decision. Now, two years later, ‘Ahalkalakets’ believes he must rematch and finish the Brazilian jiu-jitsu phenomenon and prove to the fans that his previous victory was NOT an accident and that he has always been an elite-level fighter.

While making his prediction for Holloway vs Oliveira 2, the Armenian picked the Brazilian to defeat Holloway and win the BMF title. He said:

“Sometimes Oliveira fights so bad, but sometimes he’s unreal. I’m still leaning towards him to win… I hope Oliveira wins; we have a history. People say I won by split decision, but I think I won convincingly. I won all the rounds. I have to finish him and show people that the win was not an accident. Even two years ago I was a level above him.”

Arman Tsarukyan wanted to fight for the BMF title

Last year, after submitting Dan Hooker to UFC Qatar, Arman Tsarukyan wanted to fight for the UFC Lightweight Championship but was denied for many reasons. He also wanted to face BMF queen Max Holloway.

However, the UFC gave the opportunity to Charles Oliveira. Do Bronxs made a quick turnaround after his UFC 317 knockout loss to Ilia Topuria and returned to winning ways by submitting Mateusz Gamrot at UFC Rio. He then called Max Holloway to reverse it.

‘Blessed’ and Oliveira last fought in 2015, with the Hawaiian winning by TKO after his Brazilian foe suffered a first-round injury.

Recent training clips suggest that ‘Do Bronxs’ is getting ready to get up and bang with ‘Blessed’ and is eager to meet the BMF champion in the center of the canvas as he points down.

Holloway, on the other hand, has made it clear that he wants to submit the submission artist to further elevate his status as the ‘Baddest Mother F***er’.
