Arman Tsarukyan Sparks Mass Brawl at RAF 06 After Victory (VIDEO)

A freestyle wrestling bout between Arman Tsarukyan and Giorgio Poullas took place at the RAF 06 tournament in Arizona and ended in a loud scandal.

The match unfolded in a tense atmosphere from the very beginning. Early in the bout, Poullas displayed provocative behavior — starting with a slap, to which Tsarukyan responded in kind. The exchange of unsportsmanlike actions was repeated several times, after which the referees began recording violations. As a result of penalty points, Tsarukyan took the lead 2–1.

The situation did not change in the second period. Poullas continued to avoid active wrestling and was once again penalized for passivity, allowing Arman to extend his lead to 3–1. The athletes then shifted to more substantive action, scoring points for technical moves. In the end, Tsarukyan secured a 5–3 victory.

However, the story did not end there. Immediately after the final whistle, Tsarukyan rushed at his opponent and struck him while he was on the ground. Poullas was knocked out, and a mass brawl instantly erupted both on the mat and beyond it, involving team representatives.

Tournament organizers needed time to restore order in the arena. At the time of publication, no official comments from the parties or potential disciplinary measures had been announced.

We only know that throughout the entire bout, Poullas provoked Tsarukyan with indecent remarks, attacking his honor.
