Is Arman Tsarukyan the hottest name in MMA right now? Chael Sonnen thinks he might be — and it’s not even close.

Tsarukyan isn’t just winning fights. He’s winning attention. Headlines. Clicks. Momentum. Somehow, he’s generating more buzz than Ilia Topuria — and Topuria’s a world champion. From dominant performances to viral moments (yes, even the food challenges), Arman has turned himself into must-watch content without even fighting.

But here’s where it gets interesting.

Tsarukyan came out and said if there’s a logjam at lightweight, fine — he’ll just drop to featherweight and fight for that belt instead. No begging. No waiting. No politics. Just opportunity hunting. Chael breaks down why that mindset is dangerous for the rest of the division.

We’ve seen pushback before when champs or contenders move up. Even Topuria had to “prove himself” at 155. Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev weren’t quick to hand out opportunities. But Arman’s playing this differently — he’s publicly showing he doesn’t care who says no.

And that confidence? That’s leverage.

When a guy is willing to fight anybody, anywhere, any weight — the UFC usually finds a way to say yes.

Is Tsarukyan about to force his way into a title shot… or even two divisions?
