Henry Cejudo has given advice to Arman Tsarukyan and Georgio Poullas following their post-match brawl right after the RAF 06 co-main event.
Tsarukyan returned to the mats earlier today to face Poullas, and the wrestling match turned ugly when both sides started punching each other instead of wrestling. Poullas even pushed and hit Tsarukyan during the match.
However, things turned ugly in round 3. The UFC lightweight led the scorecards 5-3, and in the final seconds Poullas attempted a takedown to turn the tide, but Tsarukyan successfully stopped it, and after the final bell he pushed Poullas down and punched him in the face.
Tsarukyan was ready to ground and pound Poullas, and the situation escalated further when both corners hit the mat.
Security quickly intervened to bring the situation under control.
A few minutes after order was restored, Henry Cejudo made his RAF debut in the main event against Urijah Faber, winning by technical fall in round 3.
Message from Henry Cejudo to Arman Tsarukyan and Georgio Poullas
A video has emerged of Henry Cejudo explaining to Georgio Poullas that as the incident took place under the RAF banner, he is unlikely to be expelled. However, Cejudo added that in most other promotions, both Poullas and Arman Tsarukyan could have faced suspensions and a fine for jumping each other.
“I just gotta tell you the truth… You’re getting away with it because it’s Real American Freestyle. If it was regular freestyle, they’d fucking disqualify you and him.”

Meanwhile, Merab Dvalishvili also spoke to Poullas after RAF 06. “The Machine” said he wants to see a rematch between Poullas and Arman Tsarukyan, and that the two should settle the bad blood and shake hands.
‘First of all, I want to see you [Georgio Poullas] and Arman [Tsarukyan] shake hands and play again. I know you two hit each other. It was fun to watch.”

However, “Ahalkalakets” has made it clear that he does not regret punching Georgio Poullas. On X the Armenian joked:
“F**k around and explore 🤷♂️”
