Arman Tsarukyan tries to jump gate at MVP event to fight Namo Fazil

UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan attempted to jump a gate to reach Namo Fazil during MVP's Rousey vs. Carano event Saturday night, according to a Sherdog report.

Video circulating on social media shows Tsarukyan trying to vault the barrier separating the audience from the cage before being restrained. He then made his way backstage to continue the confrontation. "He wants to talk, I wanna talk!" Tsarukyan can be heard saying in footage of the incident.

What sparked the Tsarukyan-Fazil confrontation

The report does not detail what triggered the clash between the two fighters. Tsarukyan, a top-ranked contender in the lightweight division, was attending the MVP promotion's boxing showcase featuring Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano.

Security personnel managed to contain the situation before it escalated further. Neither Tsarukyan nor Fazil has issued a public statement about the altercation as of Sunday morning.
