Topuria: I do whatever I want with Tsarukyan

Former UFC champion Ilia Topuria has commented on a potential fight against the Arman Tsarukyan (Armenia), the No. 2-ranked title contender in the lightweight division of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). 

"If the UFC calls me and says I have to fight Arman, I have no fucking problem with it. Arman is just another guy. I beat his ass every day, all day. I do whatever I want with him. I've fought many guys at Arman's level. He's going to feel my right hand and my skills. He's going to give up," - Topuria said in an interview on the AIF Global YouTube channel.

It is worth recalling that Tsarukyan will fight under the rules of freestyle wrestling with former UFC fighter Colby Covington on July 18 in Milwaukee (USA) as part of the RAF tournament.
