A high-stakes wrestling match at Real American Freestyle 6 (RAF 6) descended into chaos on Saturday night after UFC lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan launched a post-match attack on his opponent, Georgio Poullas.

The event, held at the Mullett Arena in Tempe, Arizona, saw Tsarukyan secure a 5-3 victory, but the real fight began the moment the final whistle blew.

The tension has been building throughout the chippy contest with Poullas repeatedly slapping Tsarukyan's head during tie-ups. Immediately after winning, Tsarukyan tackled Poullas to the mat and unleashed a flurry of punches and a knee.

This triggered an all-out melee as both teams and coaches rushed the mat.

"Unfortunately, I was jumped," Poullas later stated from an ambulance, adding that his family had to come to his rescue because "we were outnumbered by like 12 Armenians."

He ended his message with a jab at his rival: "To Arman, you're a little b***h."

Tsarukyan, who has a history of physical altercations outside the Octagon, showed no remorse for the incident. Taking to social media shortly after the brawl, he posted a blunt warning to his critics: "F**k around and find out."

The chaos was finally settled when UFC veteran Colby Covington, who was in attendance, stepped in to help security escort Poullas away from the shouting crowd.
