The hype around Arman Tsarukyan continues to grow after a spectacular finish Saturday at UFC Fight Night 192 . Tsarukyan (17-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) utterly steamrolled Christos Giagos (19-9 MMA, 5-5 UFC) in the first round of their lightweight bout at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, landing a clean punch that led to a knockdown and ultimately a flurry that forced referee Herb Dean to step in at the 2:09 mark of Round 1. Giagos, who came into the fight as a heavy betting underdog, fought confidently in the opening moments of the fight. Tsarukyan never looked concerned, though, and waited for his moment to land a nasty left hook that was the beginning of the end.
