Arman Tsarukyan suggests easy fight for Ilia Topuria after title loss

Arman Tsarukyan proposed that Ilia Topuria, following his recent lightweight title loss to Justin Gaethje at UFC Freedom 250 in June, should take on an unranked opponent. Tsarukyan indicated that a matchup with Michael Chandler would be appropriate, given Chandler's recent struggles in the Octagon. Tsarukyan is scheduled to face Mauricio Ruffy on Sept. 19 at UFC 331, where he aims to solidify his status as a title contender. Success in this fight may position Tsarukyan for championship opportunities in the near future.
