The main event of UFC Vegas 57 delivered on fan expectations, as lightweights Arman Tsarukyan and Mateusz Gamrot went to war in a bout that was rightfully named Fight of the Night. As entertaining as the action was, the fight’s decision drew a considerable amount of criticism online.

Gamrot earned identical 48-47 scorecards from all three judges, and the former KSW champion walked away with a unanimous decision win. The 31-year-old was able to draw on his five-round experience and do his best work later in the fight despite Tsarukyan winning the first two rounds fairly comfortably.

Many people online felt that the Armenian had done enough to win at least one more round to earn the decision. The fourth round appeared the most contentious, as Tsarukyan knocked Gamrot down with a spinning back fist but was also taken down twice.

The 25-year-old Tsarukyan was on a 5-fight win streak and was the favorite heading into this fight. Gamrot extended his own winning streak to 4 since losing his UFC debut in 2020, and he also handed Tsarukyan his first loss since the Armenian’s own UFC debut against Islam Makhachev in 2019.

The Polish fighter was the UFC’s #12-ranked lightweight heading into this fight and should expect a Top 10 matchup for his next bout.

What do you think of the judges’ scorecards for this fight? How did you have the fight scored?

Rising UFC lightweights Mateusz Gamrot and Arman Tsarukyan share the same ambitions heading into their main event tonight.

In an exciting all-European headline matchup built for the hardcore fans, #11-ranked Tsarukyan and #12-ranked Gamrot will collide at UFC Vegas 57 in what be both men’s main-event debuts.

Given their apparent struggle to secure opponents, they’ve turned to each other to solve those issues, something that fans will no doubt be thankful for should they deliver the thriller that many are expecting.

The pair enter the Las Vegas-held event in impressive form. While Tsarukyan has won five straight since a debut loss to Islam Makhachev, Gamrot has had a similarly-impressive resurgence following an unsuccessful arrival in the Octagon, emerging victorious in three consecutive outings since a narrow decision defeat to Guram Kutateladze.

With both men’s active streaks, as well as the confidence in their ability to compete with the best at 155 pounds, they’re anticipating lofty rank rises courtesy of a victory later tonight.

During his appearance at UFC Vegas 57 media day on Wednesday, the Polish lightweight suggested that whoever has their hand raised should find themselves opposite a top-five opponent next time out.

“Doesn’t matter who wins on Saturday night, I think the winner deserves top five next,” said Gamrot.

That sentiment was echoed by Tsarukyan during his own pre-fight interaction with the media. The Russian-Armenian, who believes his victory over Joel Álvarez earlier this year should have netted him a top-10 spot, is expecting a sizable jump up the lightweight ladder with a finish, perhaps even into the divisional top five.

“After this fight, I should be in top five, probably number six, number five. You guys gotta help me after this fight, talk about me a lot,” said Tsarukyan. “I beat Joel Álvarez but my rank didn’t go very high. But I thought like, Álvarez, he’s good fighter. I beat (him) very easy. I thought I’d get like, number seven, six.

“I hope after this fight, I got to be in top five, you know? Because Gamrot, he is good fighter. I will stop him and I will get in top five,” added Tsarukyan. “After this fight, I want to be a contender and I want to get fight from top-five guys.”

While neither man has perhaps established themselves into a mainstream name in the UFC as of yet, the chance to do so on the main-event stage tonight will no doubt aid their desires to secure high-ranked opposition moving forward.

Who do you think will have their hand raised in the UFC Vegas 57 headliner, Mateusz Gamrot or Arman Tsarukyan?

UFC lightweight contenders Arman Tsarukyan and Mateusz Gamrot will battle to see who will take the next step in the division.

Tsarukyan is hoping to get a big-name opponent with a win over Gamrot. He has called out Tony Ferguson and Dan Hooker in the past but never got to fight them.

Tsarukyan is also on a five-fight win streak, and his only loss in the UFC was against Islam Makhachev at UFC St. Peterburg on Apr. 20, 2019. Ranked 11th in the lightweight division, it will be tough to deny Tsarukyan a big fight if he defeats Gamrot.

Gamrot is looking to continue his rise in the lightweight rankings with a win on Saturday. The “Gamer” came into the UFC with hype and undefeated with 17 wins. However, he lost his debut against Guram Kutateladze by split decision at UFC on ESPN+ 38 on Oct. 17, 2020.

Gamrot rebounded from his loss by winning his last three fights. An impressive win over Tsarukyan could put Gamrot in the division’s top ten.
