Each axis comes from a measured career average, scaled to a fixed 0–100 range.
UFC 331 is announced for Los Angeles on September 19, 2026, at lightweight and over five rounds, according to une source spécialisée on August 5, 2026. The structured time of September 20 at 01:30 UTC likely corresponds to that evening, but the exact cage-entry time remains unknown.
No replacement is indicated in the announcement, although the card order could still change. Ruffy reportedly accepted the fight with just over 30 days' notice, as reported by une autre source on August 27, 2026.
Tsarukyan returns after his fight against Dan Hooker in November 2025, and the article mentions recent wrestling/grappling activity. The official weigh-in, weights, any potential weight-class renegotiation, medical status, and each fighter's recent experience over five rounds are unknown.
No previous matchup between Mauricio Ruffy and Arman Tsarukyan is confirmed in the selected sources. Therefore, there is no score or season to report.
This absence limits any direct comparison: the analysis is based on their styles and documented opponents, not on a history between them.
No public injury, medical stoppage, specific camp information, or late replacement has been confirmed as of the cutoff date. Current availability is therefore unavailable information.
Ruffy’s preparation is probably short, as he stated on August 27, 2026, that he accepted the fight with just over 30 days’ notice; this does not allow any conclusion about his physical condition. Tsarukyan’s medical status and preparation quality are unknown.
Une source spécialisée describes Ruffy on 27 August 2026 as a finishing puncher, with 13 knockout wins in 14 fights, but his UFC loss to Benoît Saint Denis by submission after grappling exchanges documents a limited but relevant vulnerability. His favorable scenario is to maintain long range, land explosive strikes and finish by KO/TKO, with the main obstacles being early wrestling entries, cage exits and takedowns.
Tsarukyan comes in with five wins, including victories over Charles Oliveira, Beneil Dariush and Dan Hooker; his win over Hooker is listed as a submission, with an arm-triangle choke according to une autre source on 5 August 2026. His favorable scenario is to close the distance, take Ruffy down, stabilize and then win through repeated control or submission.
The contradictory scenario is that each entry exposes Tsarukyan to Ruffy’s counters and that a long standing sequence increases the risk of a knockout. The five-round fight increases the endurance requirement, but each fighter’s recent experience in a UFC fight actually contested over five rounds is not sufficiently established.
Announced matchup: Mauricio Ruffy vs. Arman Tsarukyan, the UFC 331 co-main event, at lightweight and scheduled for five rounds. No replacement was reported in une source spécialisée’s August 5, 2026 announcement, but the card order could still change.
The official weigh-in, final confirmation of the matchup, and any late change remain unknown.
Tsarukyan has the most coherent profile for imposing wrestling, clinch work, ground control, and submission over five rounds, while Ruffy has a clear path to victory by KO thanks to his striking power.
