Mauricio Ruffy Aims for Title Shot with Win Over Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 331

Mauricio Ruffy is set to face Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 331 on September 19, with the Brazilian striker confident that a win will lead him directly to a lightweight title shot.

Ruffy, who is currently ranked seventh by the Media Panel and tenth in the Meta Rankings, previously achieved a notable victory over Michael Chandler in June. This upcoming match against Tsarukyan, known for his elite wrestling skills, poses a significant challenge for Ruffy, especially considering his past submission loss to Benoit Saint Denis.

Training with Alexander Volkanovski and Joe Lopez at Freestyle MMA in Australia, Ruffy plans to focus entirely on his preparation and aims for a knockout finish. He has stated that he will be offline during his training camp to concentrate on the fight.
