LAS VEGAS – Armen Petrosyan is ready to take on a ranked middleweight after UFC on ESPN 46.
Petrosyan (8-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) defeated Christian Leroy Duncan by unanimous decision this past Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Since joining the UFC roster, Petrosyan is yet to finish a fight, but not without a lack of trying.
“To be honest I was planning to finish him, I thought I was going to do that,” Petrosyan told reporters, including MMA Junkie, through an interpreter post-fight at UFC on ESPN 46. “I almost did it, I almost got him out of there, but the reason why I didn’t is because of how tough he was. He’s very unorthodox, he’s very hard to figure out, and I think that because of that, he’s got a really big future ahead of him.”
