Arman Tsarukyan Teases Return to UFC with Potential Title Fight

Arman Tsarukyan is set to return to the UFC, potentially for a title fight, as he revealed in a recent video blog on his YouTube channel.

The UFC lightweight contender mentioned his next fight could be in September in L.A., with a possible rematch against Charles Oliveira.

Arman Tsarukyan defeated **Charles Oliveira** via split decision in a No. 1 contender's bout at UFC 300.

Ilia Topuria is currently slated to defend the lightweight belt against **Justin Gaethje** in the main event of UFC White House on June 14.

If Topuria wins, he may move to the welterweight division, leaving the 155-pound belt vacant.

Arman Tsarukyan seems to be indicating that a rematch with Oliveira could be for the vacant title.

Arman Tsarukyan hasn't competed in MMA since last November, when he submitted **Dan Hooker** in the UFC Qatar main event.

He has remained active, going 5-0 under the Real American Freestyle banner in 2026 alone.

Arman Tsarukyan is also scheduled to fight **Tony Ferguson** on June 13 and **Colby Covington** on July 18.

Arman Tsarukyan will serve as the backup fighter for the UFC White House main event, in case someone pulls out or gets hurt.

This could be an opportunity for him to step in and compete for the title.

And with his recent performance, Arman Tsarukyan is looking strong.

But the UFC has yet to announce its schedule for September, so the details are still uncertain.

So the wait continues for Arman Tsarukyan's next UFC fight.

Arman Tsarukyan's last UFC fight was on November 2023, where he won against **Dan Hooker**.

The American Top Team standout has been training hard and is ready for his next challenge.
