The nasty Ariel trying to bait Arman into saying that Islam is ducking him and Arman just keeping it real: “ No he will fight anyone”. Props to Arman
Love how Ariel always tries to deny that he baits fighters into saying things but it's always so blatant. Like at 17:42, how exactly did he think Arman would respond? He asks leading questions in nearly every interview where he can and then tries to pull the "But I wasn't the one who said it!" card when people call him out on it. And he had the gall to get mad at Joe Rogan for pointing it out a while back.
@@user-iy3gb1sp2w Ariel blatantly asked a leading question there. What did he think Arman was going to respond with? Anyone who bothered watching his post-fight presser (or even this interview) already knows how he feels about Bobby and the bad stoppage. What was the point of asking that question other than to get a juicy response out of Arman? Did Ariel honestly expect Arman to give a civilized response there? And another example I can recall off the top of my head was the time Francis came on right after his boxing match. "How do you think Dana White feels about it?" Thankfully, Francis took the high road on that one but that was 100% an attempt to generate a viral moment by Ariel. Ariel uses leading questions all the time to create/fuel drama between fighters. Try and look out for it next time he has a fighter on that has bad blood with another fighter. He'll ask a question with the most obvious answer just so he can goad the fighter into rambling about the other guy.
Arman is real fighter, Islam is real fighter too, respect each other
Yea but it was a quote from dan hooker. I think it's fair game to ask fighters to respond to each other. He's just relaying the message. I think journalists should do that.
@@jeffreysmith9837 Ariel is known for instigating fights between fighters. He knows Dan is a wellknown Islam hater (the fighter). So if Ariel asks him about Islam he knows Dan Will trash Islam. And thats How I remember it playing out. I May be mistaken.
Arman is a savage, dude said fight to the death and I think he was serious.
bottled it in front of green
Arman's an emotional dodo bird.
Our guy 🫶🇦🇲✊super warrior
This guy impresses with his mindset!
I’m so impressed with Arman in this interview. I’ve become a fan. Would love to see that fight with Islam.
Nah..still boring.
@@jackpace6845🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and this is your third comment 😂😂😂
Bravo Arman. Stay humble. Don't look past any opponent
This is the interview we all have been waiting for!
Not a chance. You a bot? No one gives a flying f about Arman lol.
People want to watch new fighters, tired of grandpas. Who r u?
@@jackpace6845that’s why you’re here writing comments 😂😂😂 this is already the second comment from you that I see under this video. I wonder how many comments about Arman you have left under this video 😂😂
@@MaaanMaanManhe has Armans poster in his bedroom
Friend: Why you smile?
Arman: I’m so happy, Bobby Green fall asleep 😂
Arman needs to be humbled one time.
The fight to make
Gaethje vs Makhachev
Arman vs Charles
That's a sweet match-up
I agree
Best interview I’ve heard for Arman so far, no one seems to ask the right questions but this covered pretty much everything. Well done 🙏🏽
Lol ariel hawani "s other account
@@mmamonster664 😂 honestly I watch a lot of his interviews but this covered a lot I was genuinely pleased with it
Yes! Never paid much mind to Ariel’s interviews, but compared to Arman’s other interviews, this was by far the best! Great questions and great flow.
Arman is a danger to the lightweight division, he offers a all around attack that is very rare. Future champ right here
Islam won’t fight him again, he’d rather fight striking guys with bad grappling
@@jackboyle887 What?!? Islam during his winning streak have fought jiu jitsu champions and elite wrestlers. Oliveira is a 3rd degree jiu jitsu black belt, Ramos is a jiu jitsu champion and a 3rd degree jiu jitsu black belt, Alex is a national wrestling champion, Lentz is a D1 wrestler and etc.
He ain’t future champ! Relax
@@chrisruch6595 tell us you dont watch ufc without telling us
@@SuperThesavageit's true people said beniel is a future champion and he had greater resume then arman but look at what happened to him now , i personally think arman doesn't get passed Charles.
This kid has finally understood that making noise gives you attention, the big fights and opportunities. Attacking Green and then knocking out Dariush was a superb move. Rankings are lame and dumb, and makes ZERO sense. Chandler hasn't fought in 13 months and is ranked at 5. Rafael won't return before after a year and is ranked above Arman at 7. Gaethje is only waiting for yet another title shot at 2. And Dustin at 3 won't fight any new contenders and should just be removed from the rankings at this point. What is even the purpose with having winning streaks when neither Dariush before he lost and Belal now won't get a title shot? Even Arman should have been on a 9 fight winning streak if the judges had scored a knockdown for him in round 4 against Gamrot, which they didn't for some reason they don't know themselves...
He ran up on bobby with 5 people, tried to grab his neck then what happened when the odds were evened ?? Lol his friends got slapped up & Armo didnt do anything even when he got there
@@nomoney_sniper1885 He just did it to make some noise and nothing else. If it was real, then he would have punched him and taken him down.
@nomoney_sniper1885 the culture in his neck of the woods is to always roll up with your crew in case something goes wrong but when it comes down to it they fight 1 on 1 which Arman even said to him. He was never gonna attack green and only retaliated when green shoved him off. They don't take words too kindly, just how that part of the world rolls. Khabib did the same thing and believe me it's not because he was scared to approach the great Artem Lobov by himself.
@@cryptombs As someone hailing from that part of the world, I can attest to that.
@@vardgeshovhannisyan8232 🫡
Lol this dude is such a savage
Arman is a psychopath and I love it 😂😂
why is he a psychopath?
8:00 classy and intelligent Arman, didn't take Ariel's bait to badmouth Islam. Ariel is such a snake in his interviews smh
Why you watching Ariel then? "I hate this guy, but i also watch every single interview he does"...Arman, he is boring as they come. No one gives a f what he thinks or does.
@@jackpace6845 lol I never said I "hate" Ariel. And I don't watch all of his interviews either, just about 1 out of 5 when I find the interviewee interesting (Arman in this case)
Congratulations Arman, great interview!
Congratulations on the boring interview..no one cares. He will never be a star in the UFC.
@@jackpace6845🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is your fourth comment so far. Why are your here?
@@MaaanMaanMan😂
Lmfao “ no i was happy” 😂 love this dude
Dan Hooker is to Islam what Conor is to Khabib….just a salty jealous hater
Big fan, that fight against Islam was insane, I never released that he took it on 2wks notice!! What a savage, no one's going to beat this kid, he's going all the way.
9 days * not two weeks 5 extra days can help a long day
Islam had a staph infection too
How when Arman couldn't even defeat Gamrot?
Gamrot 🔥🔥
Fight between 2 persons. If 1 person was on short notice, his opponent also on short notice.
Why isn't this guy focusing on Porier? Its Porier who is avoiding young contenders. At least Gaethje fought Fiviziev . Porier has been sitting on a top 5 position being inactive 🤬🤬
They are Team mates. That’s why he is not calling out Dustin.
Why tf would he ? Beneil is better than DP who is also coming off a KO loss, Justin doesn’t deserve a title shot when we know he taps out. Feed Justin to Arman
@@DADRB0B55 Because he will still get a title shot if he beats Porier. It's not like Porier is on a losing streak
Thanks for having him on Ariel! Very interesting interview. Arman will take the belt for sure. I don’t see anyone even stand a chance to surive 5 round against him beside Islam.
Benoit saint denis ?
cant wait to see these two cross paths, great fight@@Natsu4495
😂😂😂😂😂 gaethe will knock this dude out quick are you joking kid?!
@@derekcarruthers2197 are you a casual bro?
My man looking like a young Michael Corleone
Arman jan! 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Ive been impressed with this man since his UFC debut, which was against islam by the way on short notice but GODDD DAAAMN that ko was NAAAAASTY
me too when I saw the Islam fight I knew right away he was good because I Knew how good Islam was and this guy was matching him and just simply him avoiding the takedown for so long until he got tired vs Islam is extremely impressive and the fact he even tries to go for offensive wrestling vs someone like Islam
We love Arman Tsarukyan 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
If Gamrot was smart he would be calling out Arman for a rematch right now to prove he can beat him decisively and steal his thunder. Arman would take the fight to right that wrong on his record. Whoever wins is the undeniable #1 contender. By then Charles and Islam would’ve fought and they would’ve only be waiting for Gaethje to get his shot. I think that’s the most realistic fight since Dustin is going to rank squat and only fight big names
Problem is not many ppl wanna see that rematch outside his fanbase. Gamrot been huggin nuts and can't seem to find finishes. He was getting pieced up vs Turner and pulled a decision win via ground control and no damage. He also got dominated by Dariush which is a terrible look now. No excitement.
I think gamrot is a nice human being but I think he has the fakest record ever in the top 10.
Won a bad decision against arman, turner and via a injury to fiziev.
He beat him!
@patrickmaier9535 Arman and Turner were not bad decisions. Close fights but right guy won
@@kevinfromchicago7635he did not win the Arman fight. A freaking judge gave him a round where he got dropped by the spinning back fist
Good, he isn't managed by Ali😒
Dan Hooker said that Islam will never fight arman? Lol, is Dan drunk?
Islam has already fought Arman and won.
A reminder to all athletes: Don’t skip the film room.
I agree with Arman that Islam will win Oliveira and one big reason is that Oliveira does not even want to watch the first fight and he wants to just "be Charles". But he was Charles and Islam had a gameplan for that and that is why he got knocked down and submitted. What he would need to do is to watch the first fight and see what went wrong and then correct the mistakes and come up with a new gameplan. You need to be humble to improve yourself. With only willpower you don't win fights but with skills and tricks you will. Like Arman had this trick for Beneil, like Leon had the trick for Usman.. If you can't accept the loss, you deny the need to improve your skills. Same what happened to Beneil "I was not myself" when he got smashed by Charles. And what happened again.. He got his ass beaten by Arman.
Justin has done enough to only fight the top 2 guys. Dustin on the other hand is just sitting there and MUST fight one of the guys coming up and stop ducking them. It's the fight to make. If Dustin doesn't take a fight against Arman he should just get dropped from the top 10 rankings altogether. He doesn't deserve a higher ranked opponent after losing to Justin!
I 100% agree.
I want to see Tsaryukyan vs Oliveira.
Gaethje fights for title next.
But Justin also already got two title shots and Arman is #4 isn't like he is #10 or something.
#2 vs #4 is a normal fight to make
@@crazypato3752 you are right but between Dustin and Justin. Justin just beat Dustin and Charles is next in line atm. I really think Dustin has to take the fight. If he ducks though then he's gotta get dropped way down in the top 10 and Justin can take him.
‘I’m going to win or die”. 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Porier needs to take this fight
Arman very strong fighter
He beat a 57 year old dariush
Let's slow down.
haha come on
😂 right Dariush isn't even that good he's slow af
Bro oliviera beats dariush “omg oliviera is the best.” Title shot next. Arman does the same thing “hes old”
@@Spitz10same thing in even better fashion by the way, so many fans were saying Dariush would knock him out and armans beat nobody now they say this after the fact
Would love to see Arman vs Paddy next at UFC 300!
Im not a paddy fan but i dont want him to die either
@@colbylandwehr3334right 😂😂
Bro why you want a death sentence on another fighter?
That would be make paddy retire 😅
😂😂😂😭😭 bro wants to kill Bobby 17:20
I’m proud that an Armenian fighter is coming up in the ranks and has amazing skills, but I think he needs one fight from either Charles, Justin, or Dustin before he fights Islam. I would love to see him take one of these fights and beat them before he fights for the title.
I can't wait for Islam vs Arman
Arman vs Gaethje would be crazy if Charles gets his rematch against Islam.
Arman on his way
He’s a beast! I like when he enjoys Bobby green getting fcked up… the ref should’ve let it keep going 😂😂😂
Why tf Gaethje have to take this fight 😂
Cause he cant wrestle Nd grapple, easy money for Arman, Armans Wrestling is basicly on the same level as islam....
Arman vs Islam 2024! Get ready!!
Fiziv vs Arman makes sense right now!
Arman vs Charles and Islam vs Justin should happen next.
Reason: Justin knocked out Dustin which is huge and has a belt, never had a match with Islam and is already old. I definitely think he deserves a match for the belt.
Charles: He has been booked for the second fight but wasn't able to have it due to an injury. Due to some reason, it doesn't feel like Charles is very much confident. He even mentioned that he can fight Conor or Islam before he is booked for a second fight.
There are many candidates and everyone should get their chance. Justin definitely deserves the title match.
Legit Contender
Arman Tsarukyan vs TOP 3 Fighter ! LETS GO #UFC #UFC300
Arman Tsarukyan vs Islam Makhachev is an Epic Match that must happen 🙌🏻
Tsarukyan is abit delusional in thinking he is up next for the title shot, Charles and Justin are before him and he must atleast focus on a title eliminator
Islam/Justin. Arman can fight Charles
Everyone tries jump the gun
Right? The dude beat a old slow Dariush that isn't even good
arman vs fiziev is a sweet fight
Why should Gaethje have to fight one more contender, wait any longer or lose his title shot bc Charles couldn't make it to his rematch, that wasn't Gaethje's fault. If anybody needs another W before a title shot, it's Charles. He was getting the quick rematch primarily based on timing, bc Gaethje vs. Poirier was booked closer to the UAE date & it would have been a quick turnaround for the winner. Gaethje beat #6 Fiziev, a streaking new contender & #2 Poirier at the time, he's also a fresh match-up for Islam & is a break from Islam's title reign being rematches with Volk, Charles or Tsarukyan. The Highlight must be next for Islam while Charles fights Arman or Gamrot.
Gaethje lost his 2 title fights and one was to Charles who made him tap in the 1st round. He can wait
Because Gaetjhe, as entertaining as he is, has only completed 1 full round in his title fights. In the other 2 rounds, he tapped out. And I'm not including that joke bmf title in that
Exactly.
@@thenedsmmachannel8970ya a long time ago kid. Justin is better than he was a lot more patient. I'd love for Justin to take Arman out. Would handle Arman easily watch
@@derekcarruthers2197 long time? It hasn't even been 2 years yet, smooth brain.... little man over here can't even tell time
Islam vs Charles against the winner of Arman vs Justin is the perfect case scenario but UFC doesn't work like that though 😢
That is an easy match up for makhachev. Better put him against Justin. Makhachev gonna do the same thing to Charles if they fight again
Gaethje really shouldn't. Gaethje deserves a title shot after defending his rank against Fiziev and beating Porier. Porier is the one who should be fighting Arman but I have a feeling he won't.
Oliveira or Poirier vs Tsaryukyan. I agree 100%.
But arman is #4 there's no difference in #2 vs #4 you are acting like Justin fighting arman would be a huge step down
next!!!
Poirier 🇺🇲 vs 🇦🇲 Tsarukyan
Makhachev 🇷🇺 vs 🇧🇷 Oliviera 2
Dariush 🇺🇲 vs 🇧🇷 Moicano
Gamerot 🇵🇱 vs 🇪🇷 Fiziev 2
Chandler 🇺🇲 vs 🇨🇮 Mc Greagor
Arman!!!!!!! 🇦🇲
You forgot LOST with Gamrot ? :)
Islam had not the same situation, he had a 10 fight winning streak. Yes, people were avoiding him too, bu it is not the same situation.
Give him fresh and nice to Makhachev. Boy needs some humbling from the champ. Let's go
Gaethje Vs Makhachev
Oliveira vs Arman
UFC will make Arman vs. Justin next
Calling out Justin makes no sense 😂 he's been saying hes comfortable waiting on the sidelines for the title fight, call out Dustin instead. Or Charles since they may skip him now..
Call out Islam, he already went 3 rounds with him and took him down twice in his debut!
Dustin declined a fight against Benny 2 times, why would he now accept a fight against Arman?
@@jrwaltbit doesnt make sense for islam to fight arman. You got the rematch with charles after that gaethje is next in line. Arman first has to fight poirier and or chandler and maybe fiziev until then he doesnt deserve a title shot
Just because Gaethje said he Will wait for a title shot doesn't mean UFC Will give him one.
@@pacoss4618Charles isn't getting the rematch. Justin will fight Islam
I feel bad for Islam, the top two contenders are ones he already beat
Look how long it’s been since the fight with Arman 😂
That was a huge win for Arman. I still don't think he's ready for a title shot but how about Poirier or Gaethje next?
UFC has to give this guy some big name before the title fight. Someone either from Poirier, Gaethje or Oliveira. Unfortunately Dariush is not a big name so UFC has to make him popular before giving him the title shot.
For me, it should be Oliveira. I personally would rather see Islam fight Gaethje before Ramadan starts, while Arman and Oliveira fight it out for the winner of Islam vs Gaethje.
@@nadershah1257 ya I agree. Gaethje vs Islam will be more exciting. Tsarukyan vs Oliveira should be the #1 contender.
Na Charles vs Islam. Gaethje got son'd by Charles already
I have noticed that Justin only fight grapplers when he fights for the belt outside of that they only match him with strikers
the top of lightweight has been striker heavy for a minute....what grappler was he suppost to fight??
@@evxlved9833 Kevin Lee was around the top 5 when Gaethje debuted.
And now arman and Gamrot are lurking in the shadows
Ariel did not talk smack about ufc , dana White or mentioned his 5 time journalist Award this time?? He did not even bash a fighter or Said his “if you come at the King yiu better not miss “cringe qoute?
I think he will be a champ in the next 2 years
I think the sky will turn green next week.
How when Arman couldn't even defeat Gamrot?
Justin 'The Highlight' Gaethje has never backed down from a fight. He'll accept the fight. They say be careful what you wish for and Arman will get everything he's asking for.
Exactly. I wish Justin does fight him cuz I believe it will be easy for Justin honestly
8:00 What a salty hater Dan Hooker is !
If he cant take down Justin its over.
Bro what💀 he’s going to easily take Gaethje down lol and he’s gonna win easily
@@SheCallsMeAbothere’s a reason why he said “if he can’t”🤦♂️
@@SheCallsMeAbo? What are you 16? Justin was a ncaa division one all American wrestler good luck. Smh kids
this fight proved Arman is not a suck fighter
Next champ !!!
I hope he gets a title shot before Islam runs away to welterweight
Moves up*
@@muhammadzariff7075 running away so he doesn’t have to fight arman. He’s already taking about it
Bet ufc offered him to Dustin today for 300 but turned it down. 😂
Interview was great
to be honest. the lightweight division and welterweight in the top 15 never fight, they are trying to hold onto there rank to much and dont even up fighting, like fighting 1 time a year when you got upcomers who deserve to test against the ranking
Haha, I def was backing Dan Hooker when he spoke up about Islam and the IV use but him sitting there saying Islam would retire before fighting Arman is laughable. They fought before and it was a good fight. Islam's confidence has only went up since then
Because arman took the fight on short notice.
Notice how islam only takes short notice fights when he has full camps
@@crazypato3752He takes whatever they offer him fool. He beat Charles and Alex on full camps.
Gaethje gets murdered by Arman or Islam. Why’s he even in contention.
Good for Arman that he won but the guy is such a clown.
He walked up to Bobby with four dudes and yoked him to fight, then when Bobby gets KO'd the guy says that the ref shouldn't have stopped the fight.
What an egotistical clown.
Its upto UFC.... they are the match maker
Arman vs olives makes sense while we do Islam vs Justin
🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Armans a good dude
Yeah, right😒
Arman is still vey young they should give him 2 more, before fighting for the title.
Really dude.
@@natertotgaming1246delusional. Really. The guy lost vs the polish guy n Islam and you think he’s ready for the champ. Benail is not same level as Charles Islam n the guy who beats him lol
Should be dustin, just already fought a young buck on the rise
His english is good
Why should Justin take the fight? I truly don’t get it. Dude has earned a title shot with his last two wins. Arman should get Olivera then a title shot for whoever wins
Justin beat the dustin poirier(2nd) and became the title contender and suddenly he beat 4th rank and he is the contender 😂.
12:25 cmon ariel youre a journalist, you must know what bobby said. Why's he acting like he doesnt know
He understood part of the business making noise to grab a lot of attention..
I respect Arman
The mistake he did against Islam was he tried to out wrestle Islam and out jump him for the title. But islam baited him to take him down and he weared out of gas tank.
He got beat by close decision vs gamrot i think but at this point hes definitely proven hes ahead of gamrot
Robbery rewatch the fight and tell me who did more damage
Close decision you could argue but robbery is definite, judges missed the knockdown in the 4th round
Round 5 was the one Arman was completely gassed out. Also Arman looks slow. However in the last two fights he won via TKO/KO. Will be great to see in a 5 rounder. Geithe and Porier are really rough.
@@MrBen580was still close
Gamrot crotch sniffed every time he took arman down. No damage, just sniffing
Anyone callin out Gaethje has some balls, p4p Gaethje isnt the most talented but hes p4p #1 scariest style for anyone.
Dustin should fight him not gaethje, gaethje has no reason to fight down the ranking based on his recent performances.
He’ll beat islam
Arman vs Bronx / Islam vs Justin
Great interview Ariel! You covered everything
Why isn’t he fighting gamrot next genius
Why not call out Dustin
As if dustin would accept
Teammates at att..they train a lot together
Reminds me of a LW Topuria
11:24
This is the man that we needed in the lightweight division. Someone who broke into the top 5 convincingly, young, hungry, and a legit threat to the throne. This is the kind of man that would really motivate Islam to be prepared, and would put Islam in GOAT status if Islam defeats him.
hmm... Islam 1 - 0 Arman tho
