Arman Tsarukyan claims that he spoke to Dana White and the UFC following his win over Mauricio Ruffy and they are planning his next fight against the champion.

Arman Tsarukyan has made his intentions crystal clear: he wants UFC gold next, and he believes the matchmakers are already putting the wheels in motion.

The top lightweight contender recently revealed that discussions with the promotion are pointing directly toward a championship opportunity in his next walk to the Octagon. Coming off a statement performance, Tsarukyan feels his body of work speaks louder than any narrative currently floating around the 155-pound landscape.

"Yes brother, of course it does. How can I not deserve a fight for the belt with a first round finish?" Tsarukyan said regarding his place in the title queue. "I talked to them, so everything is fine, they are working on the next fight being for the title."

A Clear Path to Lightweight Gold

The lightweight division remains one of the most volatile weight classes in the UFC, but Tsarukyan’s trajectory has been virtually impossible to ignore. Holding an impressive 22-3 professional record with nine victories coming via knockout, the 27-year-old powerhouse has consistently proven himself against elite competition. His dynamic wrestling baseline paired with sharp, improving striking has turned him into a matchup nightmare for anyone sitting at the top of the rankings.

While speculation constantly swirls around potential high-profile matchups involving action fighters like Max Holloway, Tsarukyan has kept his focus strictly on the strap. His confidence stems from direct communication with UFC executives, giving him assurance that his next fight won't just be another title eliminator, but the real deal.

With a dominant first-round stoppage fresh on his resume and momentum firmly on his side, Tsarukyan is ready to cement his spot at the top. If negotiations pan out as planned, fans won't have to wait long to see him challenge for the ultimate prize in mixed martial arts.
