Mauricio Ruffy's first loss came against Benoit Saint Denis via submission. After that, many started calling him a fraud and claiming his grappling was nonexistent. However, he bounced back with back-to-back wins over Rafael Fiziev and Michael Chandler. After that, he faced Arman Tsarukyan, his biggest test yet. He defended the takedowns beautifully, but Tsarukyan caught him off guard with a brutal elbow that led to another defeat in the UFC.

Volkanovski admits he would have preferred Mauricio Ruffy to get a few more training camps before facing Arman Tsarukyan. When the short-notice fight came up, Volkanovski felt Ruffy needed more time to prepare for someone like Tsarukyan.
“I would have loved to have a few more camps before an Arman. When we heard about the short-notice fight, I was like, ‘I’d rather have a few more camps,’ but Ruffy has obviously taken it all in really well,” Volkanovski said on Precision with Mighty and Izzy.
However, he praised the Brazilian star for handling the situation well and making the most of his training. Meanwhile, the 30-year-old is hoping to get back on track soon and earn another title shot opportunity, as the lightweight division moves at a rapid pace.
