UFC fighter Arman Tsarukyan said that a grappling fight with Sharabutdin Magomedov, nicknamed Shara Bullet, may not take place.
The fight is scheduled for December 30 and should take place in Armenia.
“He’s some kind of strange pirate.” Doesn’t want to take over Armenia. Along the way, he became afraid. I was late for my flight and didn’t board the plane. Along the way, all his conversations were just water.
Let’s see, there will be a press conference. Whether this pirate will come or not. If not, then his nickname needs to be changed. You understand which one,” Tsarukyan said while communicating with fans on social networks.
