Thus, &#8216;Ahalkalakets&#8217; confessed that the division&#8217;s No. 1 surprised him.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI thought Dariush was going to win for sure. I thought he was in good shape. In my opinion, it was his last chance to be a champion and fight with Islam Makhachev. Now he lost, and to reach the top again, it takes at least a year and a half. He&#8217;s not young like me. That&#8217;s why I thought he was going to give his all in this fight. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Arman Tsarukyan would crush Charles Oliveira?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although he was impressed with Charles Oliveira&#8217;s performance, Arman Tsarukyan thinks he would roll over the Brazilian: \u201cCharles is a good fighter. He has a lot of experience. He is patient and he showed his level. But for me, Charles is a gift. I will crush him easily because his style is the best style for me. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_60155\"  width=\"696\" height=\"391\"  data-origwidth=\"696\" data-origheight=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UF9tAvg-FfA?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Arman Tsarukyan has 19 career wins and 3 losses.
