Arman Tsarukyan Gets Title Shot At UFC 311
Arman Tsarukyan (22-3) is set to take on Islam Makhachev in the main event of UFC 311 on Saturday. Tsarukyan is rematching Makhachev as he lost to the Dagestani native in 2019 which was a short-notice fight and his UFC debut. Tsarukyan is coming off a decision win over Charles Oliveira and enters the fight as a sizeable underdog as DraftKings has him at a salary of $6,800. In the UFC, Tsarukyan is 9-2 with four wins by knockout while both of his losses came by decision. If he beats Makhachev, an immediate rematch would likely be next.
