Tsarukyan gears up for Makhachev rematch

“I knew that , I was informed that this fight would not happen this year it will take place early next year,” Tsarukyan told Red Corner MMA.

“Yes, it’s from the UFC, but this is the nature of the sport,” he continued. “Everything can change in a moment and that’s why I am keeping myself in shape, I am in camp now. I don’t care when this fight happens — even if it does in a year, I will keep working and moving towards this fight… It’s not about fighting Islam for me; it’s about becoming the champion.”

“Any of the top five could fight for the interim title,” Tsasukyan said. “ Hooker, Chandler, Oliveira, Gaethje or Poirier, all of them can fight for an interim title — although they don’t deserve it.

“Four of them are coming from a loss,” he continued. “Only Hooker had a win, and Chandler I think, although Chandler’s had his last victory over Tony Ferguson.”
