Today, one of the top lightweights in the sport, Tsarukyan (18-2, Krasnodar, Russia via Yerevan, Armenia) is looking to extend his five-match winning streak in his first UFC main event.

During his last two visits, he won a knockout victory over Joel Alvarez and Cristos Giagos. Tsarukyan now aims to complete the first task by giving Gamerot a statement performance.

Exciting wrestler Gamerot (20-1 fight, Poznan, Poland) plans to continue his journey in the 155-pound rankings with a breakout performance.

The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt has won big victories over Scott Holtzman, Jeremy Stephens and Diego Ferreira. Gamerot is now hoping to enter the top 10 for the first time in his career by sending Sarukyan.

In the co-main event, No. 10 welterweight Neil Magni will try to stop the undefeated No. 15 Shakvat Rakhmonov.

Magnie (fighting 26-9, Denver, Colo.) Is back in action, trying to maintain the record for most UFC welterweight wins.

Surviving long in the top 10, he scored remarkable victories over fellow ranking rivals Jeff Neal and Lee Jingliang. Magnie’s eye is now on another emerging welterweight competitor.

Rakhmonov (15-0, battling Uzbekistan’s Kokshetau) is expected to strengthen his unbeaten run by knocking out his number one rival.

In his first three UFC outings, the rising star has beaten Carlton Harris, Michelle Prazres and Alex Oliveira. Rakhmonov is now looking for another victory to maintain its 100 per cent finishing rate and keep it high in the rankings.
