Arman Tsarukyan is looking to raise the bar after a dominant tech fall win over Dillon Danis last night (Fri., Oct. 23, 2026) at RAF 14 in Las Vegas, Nevada, as the UFC lightweight contender is now 8-1 under the Real American Freestyle (RAF) banner.

In case you missed it, Tsarukyan captured an easy win in a lopsided mismatch Friday night against the unpredictable Danis. RAF officials were lucky the main event clash didn’t result in a post-fight brawl, but it lasted long enough for Tsarukyan to completely shut out Danis and return to the RAF win column. Remember, Tsarukyan was coming off a loss to RAF Cruiserweight Crossover Champion and former UFC title challenger Colby Covington back in July.

After Friday’s victory, Tsarukyan made it known that he is looking to challenge the “best fighters” on the RAF mat. Obviously the UFC lightweight contender would like a rematch against Covington, but he’s also aiming to test himself against more well-known competition like UFC legend Georges St-Pierre. Tsarukyan mentioned GSP by name during the RAF 14 post-fight press conference.

Check it out below:

“We’ve got a lot of names here. Right now, I’m focusing on the MMA fighters with big names,” Tsarukyan said.

“I don’t wanna just wrestle with no-names. I wanna collect all the big names, all the best fighters. A lot of UFC fighters, a lot of good fighters signed.

“We’ll see, maybe they can bring GSP,” he continued. “I would like to wrestle him.”
