Arman Tsarukyan plans April return after UFC 311 exit, targets five round rematch with Charles Oliveira

Off the back of his withdrawal from UFC 311, Arman Tsarukyan has revealed he is targeting a return to the Octagon as soon as April — if not by the end of March, claiming a five round rematch with ex-champion, Charles Oliveira makes the most sense for him next.

Tsarukyan, who retains the number one rank at the lightweight limit, was forced out of his premiere title fight under the umbrella of the promotion over the course of the weekend, ahead of a rematch with Islam Makhachev in the main event of UFC 311.
