Tsarukyan: A Big Payday Is Needed to Fight Gaethje
Arman Tsarukyan says the UFC would need to offer a serious financial incentive for him to face Justin Gaethje. The comments have revived debate over a possible matchup between the two fighters.
Fighter Arman Tsarukyan says a fight with Justin Gaethje would only be possible with a high payday. According to Tsarukyan, the Ultimate Fighting Championship would have to offer a significant financial incentive to convince Gaethje to take the bout.
The names of both fighters are frequently mentioned in discussions around the lightweight and light heavyweight divisions. Tsarukyan's statement reflects his view that such a matchup would have value both as a sporting contest and commercially.
Gaethje is known for his fighting style and heavy strikes, which make a possible fight attractive to viewers. Tsarukyan, however, believes that this appeal should be backed by a concrete payment from the promotion.
The UFC has not issued an official statement on the matter. Whether plans for a fight between the two take shape will become clear in the coming period.
