Top Armenian-Russian UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan in an exclusive interview with jeetbuzz59.com commented on the upcoming fight between the promotion's former bantamweight champion Petr Yan and Chinese Song Yadong.
I 🐠see Petr Yan as the favorite. I think he will beat Song Yadong early, break his losing streak and get back into the title race. I think he will fight for the title again and become the champion.
