whats wrong with that? with his level of englis hits tot normal
lol i absolutely love how retrospective Arman Tsarukyan explained that first round guillotine choke. I can imagine a million things be racing through your mind. "Done!? I'm done already?!? ...NO WAY! I came to win" love it brother
also side note: i used to live near Armenia-town by Los Angeles. My piano teacher was Armenian and so were all her students. I was the only non armenia kid in that afterschool class but i learned so much about their culture. Great, hardworking people!

He will close to the fight, I hope he get dustin together as well will be epic lol
@@jaybru5399Yes he does. Have you seen him riding his dirt bike up the mountains? It’s insane. He’s a great rider.

Tsarukyan vs Oliviera was a grappling masterpiece. Loved every second of it. Absolutely top notch from both competitors. Kudos.
Honestly after not tapping, and all the aggression and will to win, I'm a fan of him now, Charles wasn't the lion that night, arman was the tiger
Was this the guy who Dustin best by that knockout? I asked because if yes this guy is a beast and fight very aggressive as he was even caught by Dustin unexpectedly as he fought reckless in that fight which is what cost him. But he was dominating and controlling the guy and applying aggressive pressure until that moment when he was caught. The guy was matching forward like a beast and that was the first time I watch him. Trust me I like Islam but what I saw that day I can never bet against this guy will host style of fighting. He will be on your ass from start to finish and he comes heavy!!!
no he was d saint@@senesiethomas7141
@@senesiethomas7141 you're definitely a casual (no insult). No way are Benoit Sanit-Denis and Arman Tsurukyan the same guy
@@MM-dz1wx I was asking coz I was not too sure. I only watch ufc bouts that interest me and don’t follow every fighter. But I saw the highlights of that fighter that fought Dustin that day and saw that very fight also and was super impressed and was dominating everywhere except that he fought a bit too recklessly and one moment is enough to waste all your effectiveness! That guy will be on your ass from start to finish.
I am an Armenian and I said before the match that I love Charles very much, he is a very good person, and very polite, but Arman is young and very strong. It was a very beautiful match.🇦🇲🦅🇦🇲🦅🇦🇲🦅🇦🇲🦅
Arman is giving me a young Khabib energy (His personality). Respect to both Islam and Arman if they fight again. However, I will still be rooting for Islam

What’s the difference between the other Armenian fighters ?? Karo Parisyan manny Gamburyan mousasi Abraham ?

@@veeyan6882 how is he way better Karo literally made judo look like cutting scissors and mousasi is a monster
@MMAdiehardfan I said as far as MMA karo had 0 striking only judo, nd he didn't train he literally relied on his talents, manny had the same judo but his lack of striking kept him from achieving anything in mma
@@veeyan6882 manny really worked on his striking he literally knocked out Mike brown and when fought michihoro Omigawa he displayed a lot of striking
These armenians are something special Gegard, Arman Petrosyan and him all great
Giorgio petrosyan watch him the armenian fighting out of italy one of the best strikers ever
We had manny gamburyan a 5 3 guy who made it to the ultimate fighter finals taking out 6 foot dudes n only losing to diaz cuz of a freak shoulder accident, parisyan had the best judo just was confident n didnt train hard LOL
A lot of people are busy interviewing Arman but the DC interview is the best
I usually get very bored with ground fight but this fight had me on the edge of my seat
The first fight Islam - Arman was a masterpiece of wrestling
Because Arman isn't a boring crotch sniffer like Gamrot. Arman's wrestling is just as good but his gnp game makes him double as fun to watch. He doesn't just stop when he's in control
Bobby Green my friend now 🤝
Great interview! Arman seems like a good guy
Ain't nobody doing nun to Islam. I'm convinced we ain't seeing another LW champ until he retires. Blud's goated.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Idk, Volk got him good in that 5th round of that first fight. That looked like something
@@Sir1626 Islam was dehydrated, that surely played in, kind sir.
@@cherdoa 😂😂😂😂
He never fights so you are right we wont see another champion until he retires soon. The rare time he fights he fights featherweights. He turns down every fight. He is #1 bullshit
Amazing interview DC this was the best one so far
Most championship fights is a game of inches, especially against Islam Makhachev the P4P👑. Arman was smart not to agree to the title shot in June.
Islam doesn’t take short notice fights but his fans try to discredit arman for not doing it
@@doc8090 I know right it's so hypocritical. Arman already fought their last fight on short notice and now they expect him to make a short turn around again of 6 weeks while Islam would have 7 months off by then
You know Bobby Green is my friend now 😂
DC, get us an Islam interview please
Respect to Arman and Islam for learning and speaking English
I absolutely love Arman’s nonchalant “of course “ attitude towards punching at the fan and god bless him quite frankly.
I was waiting for the Bobby green q. That's awesome to hear 😂
I dunno man. Him trying to punch a fan who flipped him off is understandable, I don't begrudge him that, but you should be a able to say a fighter isn't good or boring in an interview without getting punched in the face or ganged up upon, that I DO begrudge him, that is definitely a super strong line cultural difference.
If Charles got Arman like that two times, imagine what Islam could do
yeah, imagine, bro 😂they already fought once, remember? Don't have to imagine.
Lol Islam won 30-27, it wasn't dominant . That was like 12 fights ago
@@Lord_of_the_Pies you right, it wasn't dominant. So what is your point? 30-27 doesn't paint the full picture sometimes. Dude made it competitive on short notice.
@@soknheith3259 the point was that Islam did not dominate him and he was only like 23 at the time or 22 .now arman is entering his athletic prime
Not the same style of fighter
DC YOU"RE THE MOST LEGENDARY! GREAT SPIRITED MAN, IM GLAD WE STILL GET EXPERIENCE YOUR ENERGY
arman is that super nice super dangerous guy lool
Dc is trolling
Islam is his boy.
nice work DC!
great interview you 2 vibe
I think fighters should think they are the best but i think he’s a bit deluded here to say that Islam is only a good fighter lol
You nailed it.Islam is S tier fighter. In my S tier only Chimaev,Islam only.At least for now
Even Khabib call Islam is an Elite. This guy really have a big mouth, can't wait Islam to humble this guy.
Keep in mind the language limitation, I am sure he means good as in elite not as “good but not great”
@@dad6666_stop being so salty. You can clearly see Arman had respect for Islam’s level. There’s just fans like you who want to create a type of hate between them. I hope we will see a competitive, legendary fight between them.

Everyone doubted him? Bro he was a 3-1 favourite.
Respect
after split decision with oliv .. ofc everyone doubted him challange islam .. wtf
Good interview
Let’s go Axper! 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Thank you for this video DC Arman tsarukyan is a very good fighter
There was nothing in that fight that showed me either Arman and definetly not charles can beat islam in a rematch.
Totally agree with you
Absolutely agree
Islam is just a beast. Then again learned from Khabib and his dad. Plus he spars with Cain and gives Cain his hardest time ever. Cain is also a HW. Plus he’s trained with DC for 10 years.
But everything can happen in a fight. Especially in MMA.
Agree.. he doesn’t move as clean and does too many mistakes at this level.. Islam won’t be kind or weak like Charles
ARMAN TSARUKYAN 🇮🇷🤝🇦🇲🤝🇮🇷🤝🇦🇲🤝🇮🇷🤝🇦🇲
Arman is so funny😂😂😂😂
Watch every Olivera- and Conor nutsacker rooting for their new hope now🤣
Nutsacker? 😂
NUTSUCKER ! HA,HA,HAAAAAAAA . PERFECTLY SAID.
they will answer "he already got kod stiff cold by adriano martins, we already got our wish, there's nothing hope for".
Why tf would we support someone who robbed our boy with a split decision ? Atleast Islam actually beat Charles.
Its amazing no matter the conversation. Some casuals will always feel the need to bring up the biggest name in combat sports The Notorious Conor Mcgregor. He literally lives in the brains of every one of his haters.. And who the fuck can hate on Olivera. The man is a hell of a entertaining fighter. And all around decent person. People are so quick to shit on the veterans of the game. No respect
Such a awesome interview Couldntell Arman really reapects and love Daniel double champ Cormiea
"He showed the fuck you" hahahaha I love that! Fkn Arman is a funny MF bro! 🤣🤣🤣 Becoming a fan of this dude.
Dana White will give Arman a title shot because Arman will punch him if he doesn't
Best comment lol
Hey DC Balloons are a features when you make a victory sign on the iphone
Islam is not like Olivera. If Islam get a hold on you, there is no way back. But for sure a great fight and you deserve a title shot. Can’t wait for it. You are the only real challenge for Islam in this division. All the best to both of you🏆
You’re talking about Islam like he’s Khabib. Stop
Islam caught hold of him in first fight, he got up. He was only 22 and on short notice
Islam gets a hold of you? What do you mean by that? It can't be submissions, right? If it's takedowns, yeah they are hard to deal with but it's not like "wow, it's over!". You can't really say there is no way back.
Check their resumes
@@rohitghoshal Islam had staph thoo and he won it was close but Islam edged out every round but they are far far better today than 6 years back
I’d like to see Arman fight Tuporia! Hopefully one day! 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
Man just think we had the opportunity to see arman and Islam go at it for the belt. That would have been an absolute BANGER. I think arman has the best chance out of anyone in the ufc to beat him and honestly arman isn’t my favorite I like Islam a lot more but I feel he is just starving for the belt and also actually has the capabilities to do it. He is very good at striking and also on the ground as well. Watching him get out of the choke in the first round and then also the darce or how ever you spell it at the end of the fight. Islam is going to mow right through Dustin though. It’s going to go exactly how the first round of Dustin’s last fight went for five full rounds. Well no he is gonna tap Dustin early in the second round.
Love Topuria but Arman would take him down and eat him
I would too but Ilia's likely losing the belt to Max or a rested Volk.
@@user-hl8bd8sy4o oh Man I gotta disagree. Only person topuria will lose to is Islam or atleast has the chance to lose. If he can keep Islam off the Matt he may even beat Islam.
I am so happy that in the ufc is someone like khabib now who have the similar fighting style just brutal ground and pound etc,i just love watch Arman's fights.I am huge fan since the first fight against islam,he will be champion one day that is sure. I can't wait too see the second fight against islam ohh boy that would be a great fight. 💪💪
THIS DUDE IS FUTURE CHAMPION 💯 HIS TOO GAME MENTALLY
Let’s goooo Arman!!🔥💪🏻🏆
I like the way Daniel speaks and comments!💪
Islam.. and still
If u escape Dubronx Guillotine you're a Certified G.
Excellent video
The fact alone we know that Arman is rich and that he doesn’t need money through the fights. He wants to become the champion and he will be too, most go to the mma to earn money, he does it to be the best
Love for DC🔥🔥❤️❤️
You said congratulations the iPhone automatically does that in the background same as if you put your thumb up it will make a bubble with a thumbs up in it try it next time

I believe it happened, because both the judge and Arman are Armenians, they had probably a conversation after the fight about why he scored like that
@@aramtadevosyan1099 i wonder when judges screwed shogun over machida or condit vs lawler that this dude got an apology disgusting

@@aramtadevosyan1099wtf that's absolutely not ok if that is the case. If this is true and happened because he is Arminian he needs sacking and once the UFC sees this and commission I hope that's exactly what they do
@@kristianj1977 I don’t understand why it matters? It’s not like they will change the score lol, nothing criminal is happening here
I love both of them but Aramn is new version ❤
Arman is really sweet man
Armen is a bellend! He didn't beat Charles either, he was good and caused some damage but in the end he nearly got submitted a handful of times... I'm sure he was out briefly at the end. They need to run it back with 5 rounds. Beneil is not in the top 5!
Islam is different level now even if he gets full camp, I don’t think he beats him.
I agree
Doesn't matter,if they've fought once already they have eachothers number,if Arman fought that amazing and competitive fight on short notice against Islam's unpredictable and overwhelming style of fighting and has said he has seen his wrestling before then there's not much more Islam will do that arman won't see, yall look to jerk off Islam but forget arman is excelling up the ranks and knocking everyone down ,and was Islam's only competitive fight next to volk.This ain't even up for discussion if you can't fight your way out a wet paper bag your opinion is irrelevant
As a big Arman fan I agree, but it definitely would be interesting to see and at the end of the day it’s a fight, upsets can happen. I say Islam wins 8/10 times
Disagree,unfortunately for you and fortunately for arman you're wrong.A full camp won't go as far as you think it would when these guys have eachothers numbers,Arman said he fought Islam off so well their first fight because he knows their Russian style of wrestling and sambo and took that short notice fight on his debut.Youre right Islam did get better but that doesn't cancel out armans progression either,if you're saying otherwise you're weirdly biased and shouldn't be making opinions.Arman Is also a different level and he knows how Islam fights and his habits,I'd say arman is Islam's only kryptonite in the lw division.
@@zachmartinez6260 Islam has improved more than Arman has improved
Absolutely you can, and so does Alex before that amazing head kick 😢
Arman and Bobby are friends now? ☠️ crazy
Did Arman knock Do Bronx in the first round 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥊🥊🥊🥊
Cry harder
All the people talking about Yanking but both Arman and the accused confirm that it didn't happen Arman confirmed it in the post fighr presser when he never mentioned it at all And the accused confirmed it with a statement. I think he admitted to flipping him off and getting caught up in the the moment of being at his first UFC But seems like no one touched Arman whatsoever So he had no business touching anyone or trying to touch them.
This guy is hilarious 😂
that fight not being 5 rounds was criminal
The balloons are an iPhone feature DC😂😂😂 two fingers and they pop up 😂

my new favorite fighter. watch him v Islam 1, so good.
Agree with Arman, Islam wasn't his best for the 1st fight with Volk. But still all judges say Islam won. What is your excuse Arman that cause Oliver's to do what he did to you? Even with your full camp you can get a win over Islam.
The majority said he’d never beat Charles. I wonder what they’ll say after he beats Islam.
I thought he'd beat Charles. I think he's the hardest fight for islam. All issues going well for both fighters, I think Islam beats him.
@@deathstroke334Time will tell. First match was close, now they both are way more well rounded. I think he has the best chance out of anyone in the lighweight division. It would be a way better fight then Arman vs Charles because their wrestling will cancel eachother out and they have to probably stand and bang. I wouldn’t be surprised if one of them gets ko’d or tko’d could be Islam or Arman . Im not counting Arman out like most Islam glazers. No bias
@@henryjacobs4478 I agree with most of what you said. Though I'd disagree with you saying first match was close. A lot of people say it was close due to the scrambles. But Islam was 2 steps ahead with each interaction in that fight. Short notice for Arman. Islam was sick as well. He did well for what it was ie a short notice fight. But there was a definite mismatch.
@@deathstroke334That’s exactly why he needs a full camp not 6 weeks.. he doesn’t want to repeat the same mistakes. Or else it could end up being like Volk vs Islam 2. The one thing I like about both is that they don’t do it for the money they do it for the belt. May the best man win. In October, November, or whenever they fight
The majority of who? Brazil? The only opinion that counts, Vegas odds, gave Olives a 30% chance to win that fight.
Lot of Arman fans are saying that Arman was much younger and less experienced fighter than what he is now when he fought Islam back then, and Arman has improved a lot since then but everyone is forgetting that Islam and Arman first fight was a 3 rounder, Arman fought for 5 rounds only once against Gamrot and lost that fight, let alone that Islam is much better fighter than when he fought Arman back then.

I think arman kinda have some similiarty as khabib..it was reminds me alot when khabib vs conor long time ago... khabib was got booed from whole crowd in the stadium..even when he was talk to media...now arman also got the experienced like khabib too.. but the russian's built different..they fear no ones & focus in wins..
That's what I am gonna call the middle finger from now on. "The Fuck".
