Tsarukyan and Poullas will meet in a wrestling match at RAF 6 on Feb. 6 at the Mullett Arena in Tempe, Arizona. Poullas does not doubt that he will take down Tsarukyan more than once.

“At a certain level, anyone can take anyone down,” Poullas said in a recent interview. “So, can Arman take me down? Yeah, he has a chance to take me down. Can I take him down? Absolutely, I have a chance to take him down. I think I’m going to take him down multiple times. The question is, is he gonna get that $1,000? Can he take me down?… If you’re asking about a simple takedown, absolutely, 100 percent. I think I’m getting more than one takedown. I’m adding quite a few up, if you ask me.”
A Challenge Worth More Than $1,000
A former Division I wrestler from Cleveland State University, Poullas has gone viral on the internet with his “take me down for $1,000” videos. Poullas offers $1,000 to anyone who can take him down, which he claims has yet to happen. While there is a video of someone tripping Poullas onto his back, the wrestler-influencer denies being taken down as he immediately reversed the position.
Meanwhile, Tsarukyan (23-3) is considered one of the best wrestlers among active UFC fighters. “Ahalkalakets” has been keeping himself busy in wrestling competitions as he remains sidelined from the UFC lightweight title picture despite being the top contender.
Georgio Poullas, who takes on Arman Tsarukyan at RAF 06 this Saturday in Arizona, says he believes he’ll be able to score not just one takedown, but will pile them up against Arman, one of the best wrestlers in the UFC:
