Top Russian-Armenian UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan commented on his upcoming fight with Charles Oliveira at UFC 300 in an exclusive interview with Telecomasia.net.
He is not my principal rival. But our fight will determine the title challenger. I've been going for it for a long time and I want to be that challenger. Charles' heavy punching is to be feared, and his wrestling is to be reckoned with. But I am going to neutralize all his trump cards.
