Mauricio Ruffy Addresses Wrestling Concerns Ahead of UFC 331 Fight

Mauricio Ruffy has responded to worries about his wrestling abilities as he prepares for his fight against Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 331, scheduled for September 19 in Los Angeles.

The event will feature a flyweight title match between Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja, with Ruffy and Tsarukyan in the co-main event. Tsarukyan was initially set to face Charles Oliveira, but the matchup changed just a day before the announcement.

Ruffy acknowledged the concerns from fans regarding his wrestling defense, emphasizing his commitment to training and improvement. He expressed confidence in his abilities and stated that he prefers to demonstrate his skills in the octagon rather than just talk about them. Tsarukyan, who believes a victory could lead him to a title shot, has noted that Ruffy presents a significant challenge.
