Real American Freestyle has added another notable name to its first international event.
UFC lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan is set to take on Kuat Khamitov at RAF Georgia on July 11 inside Tbilisi Arena.
Tsarukyan Joins Growing Lineup
Tsarukyan’s addition further strengthens a card already headlined by Merab Dvalishvili and Henry Cejudo. The event will also feature an Olympic wrestling showdown between Abdulrashid Sadulaev and Kyle Snyder.
One of the top-ranked lightweights in MMA, Tsarukyan has built a reputation through his elite wrestling and success against top UFC competition. Now, he brings those skills to the RAF’s debut event in Georgia.
RAF Georgia marks the promotion’s first show outside the United States and continues to attract some of the biggest names from both wrestling and mixed martial arts.
What are Arman’s chances against Khamitov in the Middleweight?
MMA bookmakers (yes you can also bet on RAF!) heavily favor Arman Tsarukyan heading into RAF Georgia, listing the elite lightweight contender as roughly a -500 favorite (1.20) compared to Khamitov at +375 (4.75).
The line gives Tsarukyan an implied win probability of 83.3%, reflecting his world-class grappling pedigree, top-tier UFC ranking, and crushing pressure style.
However, Khamitov remains a highly dangerous and seasoned veteran underdog on this card. The Kazakh star enters the bout with immense regional experience, boasting over 25 professional victories and a reputation for durability.
