Tsarukyan Eyes Featherweight Gold
23 Mar
Summary
- Arman Tsarukyan may drop to featherweight division.
- Movsar Evloev defeated Lerone Murphy at UFC Fight Night 270.
- Tsarukyan seeks faster path to a UFC championship.

Arman Tsarukyan has reignited discussions about a potential move to the featherweight division. This comes after Saturday's UFC Fight Night 270 event, where Movsar Evloev defeated Lerone Murphy via majority decision. Evloev's victory positioned him as a contender for the featherweight championship, but UFC CEO Dana White has remained noncommittal regarding his immediate title shot.
This uncertainty has prompted the No. 2 ranked lightweight, Tsarukyan, to re-enter the conversation. He has previously indicated a willingness to move down in weight if it offered a more direct route to a UFC title. Tsarukyan has been seeking his next career move after being stalled in his pursuit of a lightweight championship opportunity.
