Dana White Unsure About Tsarukyan Competing in UFC BJJ

UFC president Dana White addressed speculation surrounding a potential appearance by Arman Tsarukyan in the organization’s grappling events, including a possible matchup with Mikey Musumeci.

The topic gained traction after it was noted that Tsarukyan has been highly active outside of MMA, competing in seven grappling matches over the past seven months—something rarely seen for a fighter of his level.

Additional interest was sparked by comments from Claudia Gadelha, who previously expressed her desire to see a match between Tsarukyan and Musumeci.

When asked directly whether such a scenario is possible, White did not give a definitive answer:

“I guess. I don’t know. Is that what he wants to do?” he said.

His response leaves the door open for Tsarukyan to participate in future UFC grappling events—provided the fighter himself is interested.
