A fighter provoked a mass brawl after a grappling match in the US (2 photos + 1 video)
On March 1, UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan competed at the RAF 06 wrestling tournament in Arizona, USA, where he faced American Giorgio Pullas. Tensions were already high ahead of the bout: Pullas and Tsarukyan traded verbal barbs, and the situation only escalated during the fight. 
In the first round, both fighters traded punches; instead of wrestling, there were several intense exchanges, and Tsarukyan looked irritated. His team could also be heard yelling at Pullas for throwing punches during the fight.
After two rounds, Tsarukyan was leading 4-1, but Pullas scored several points in the third. In the final seconds, with the score 5-3 in Tsarukyan's favor, Pullas attempted another takedown but failed and lost the fight. The Russian then pushed the American to the canvas and, from above, punched him. Chaos erupted in the arena, with both corners engaging in a brace before security broke up the brawl.
Pullas, who was attacked by Arman Tsarukyan after their fight at a tournament in the United States, recorded a video from an ambulance with a neck brace, thanking his followers for their support. Pullas claims that during the ensuing brawl, where his 62-year-old father and brothers came to his aid, his opponent had a significant advantage—"by 12 Armenians." Pullas called Tsarukyan a "little bitch." Despite Tsarukyan winning the fight 5-3, Pullas doesn't consider himself a loser: "I'm still the champion."
