Arman Tsarukyan has delivered a knockout blow to Beneil Dariush in the main event of UFC Austin, prompting speculation about a potential rematch with Islam Makahchev and ending Dariush’s title hopes.
Arman Tsarukyan just threw down the gauntlet. He sent a powerful message to Islam Makahchev and the rest of the UFC’s lightweight division. This came after a devastating knockout of Beneil Dariush in the main event of UFC Austin. Now, the question is, where does this title contender go after the biggest win of his career?
Mike Heck, Jed Meshew, and Shaheen Al-Shatti from MMA Fighting have some thoughts. They’ve been reacting to a chaotic return to Texas for the UFC. They’re also talking about Tsarukyan’s incredibly impressive performance. And, of course, the fascination for a rematch between Makhachev and Tsarkyan is on their minds.
But it’s not just about Tsarukyan. Dariush’s title hopes have officially come to an end. That’s another topic that’s got them talking. They also discuss Jalin Turner’s vicious finish of Bobby Green. And let’s not forget referee Kerry Hatley’s awful stoppage.
Deiveson Figueiredo and Sean Brady also had big wins. Miesha Tate bounced back with a performance against Julia Avila that’s got people talking. There were multiple slam knockouts on the card. And, well, there’s a lot more they’re discussing.
