UFC lightweight contender Mauricio Ruffy says he wants a title shot with a KO win over Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 331.
The UFC made a surprising fight booking on Wednesday, announcing that Tsarukyan vs. Ruffy will be the five-round co-main event at UFC 331 behind the headliner of UFC flyweight champion Joshua Van taking on former champion Alexandre Pantoja in a rematch.
Mauricio Ruffy Promises KO at UFC 331Taking to his social media to make his first public comments since the UFC announced his big fight against Tsarukyan, Ruffy promised that he won’t leave UFC 331 without a big knockout win over Tsarukyan.
Tsarukyan vs. Ruffy Fight BreakdownThe Tsarukyan vs. Ruffy matchup is your classic grappler vs. striker matchup, as Tsarukyan will be looking to close the distance and take Ruffy down to the mat and drown him out on the floor, while Ruffy will look to keep the fight standing and knock Tsarukyan out on the feet.
It’s an absolutely fascinating matchup, and one that will almost certainly see the winner of the contest take on UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje next year for the belt.
