00:00I'm here with the winner Arman Sarukyan, what a fight, what an incredible fight, a fight
00:10that, when you see a fight like that you really wish it was 5 rounds because you are both
00:14world championship caliber fighters.
00:15It was an incredible fight, how did you feel about it?
00:16First of all I want to say thank you so much to Oliveira, because he is one of the human
00:24guy in our division, so good guy, and it was honor to fight with him today.
00:29I want to say thank you so much UFC to give me this opportunity, I feel so good, but I
00:35didn't understand who gave him, the one judge gave him to him, I don't know why, but it's
00:39ok.
00:40I think it was probably because of the near finish with the submission in the first and
00:43the near finish with the submission in the third.
00:45Ok doesn't matter, I won and I want to fight for the title, next, I'm going to be first
00:50guy, the youngest UFC champion in 155 division.
00:55Did you have any concern at all at the end when you were hearing the scorecards, you
00:58were realizing it was a split decision?
01:00No I thought it's going to be, all judges going to give me, but it is what it is, I
01:06got to win by TKO or finish, but Charles is so tough I got to work on my skills and come
01:13back much stronger and better.
01:15Well it was a phenomenal fight against two of the very best in the division and you are
01:18certainly one of the top contenders.
01:20I know that your UFC debut, you fought Islam Makhachev and you have had so many great victories
01:26since then and I know that this is what you are striving for in the future, give us your
01:29thoughts on that.
01:30Yeah it was five years ago, my fight short notice with Islam Makhachev, I gave him the
01:34toughest fight and I believe myself next fight I'm going to win him, just give me that opportunity
01:39and that's it.
