Arman Tsarukyan has explained his reasons for considering Ilia Topuria a weak fighter.
Speaking in an interview with Daniel Cormier, Tsarukyan elaborated on his view. He highlighted Topuria`s performance against Bryce Mitchell, stating that even Mitchell, whom Tsarukyan described as “the worst lightweight,” managed to knock Topuria down and control him from a difficult position. “I can say that Topuria is not a fighter of particularly high level. I think he is weak,” asserted Tsarukyan.
Tsarukyan went on to predict, “I will send Topuria back to the top-15 pound-for-pound.” He further criticized Topuria`s ground game, claiming, “He can be knocked down a thousand times because he will not try to choke or do something like that.”
