“$40K Is NOTHING For Me” - Arman Tsarukyan CALLS OUT Ryan Garcia For Ducking Their Bet

The speaker recounted an incident involving Ryan Garcia, where Garcia had $40,000 and wanted to punch Ashton Hull, a runner. Hull declined, stating that $40,000 was not enough for him. The speaker then offered to take three punches for double the amount, but Garcia said he wasn't as rich. The speaker then offered his friend for Garcia to punch, which Garcia accepted. Garcia placed money on the table, but the speaker explained he didn't have cash and offered to show his bank account balance of $40,000. He proposed that if Garcia could hit and drop his friend, he would wire the money immediately, adhering to a cultural betting custom. Garcia punched the friend three times but couldn't drop him. The speaker took the money, but Garcia's associate later returned without it, claiming they needed to wire it and needed the cash for that night. The speaker insisted on receiving the money immediately, but Garcia promised to wire it the next day. A week passed, and the speaker never received the money. During an interview, the speaker confirmed he hadn't been paid. He tried to contact Garcia, who hadn't even asked for wire details. When the speaker finally FaceTimed Garcia, Garcia claimed the speaker's friend was a professional boxer. The speaker retorted that he wasn't obligated to disclose his friend's profession, stating he's a "smart guy" who wants to bet and make money. He pointed out that his friend was a large man with a broken nose, which should have indicated his fighting background. The speaker revealed that Garcia had sparred with his friend on the same day, focusing on body shots, but hadn't mentioned his friend was a professional fighter then. A video clip was shown of Garcia attempting to punch the friend. The speaker noted that Garcia seemed to realize he couldn't drop the friend, who was a boxer. Garcia stopped the attempt, saying he didn't want to hurt him and preferred to spar instead. The speaker reiterated that he never received the $40,000. When he called Garcia again, Garcia claimed it was a "stream" and they "always do on the stream like this," implying it was for entertainment and not a serious bet. The speaker acknowledged their different cultures. Garcia then proposed a sparring match of eight rounds. The speaker agreed, but with the condition that he could use his elbows. Garcia agreed, and they are now waiting for the sparring match to happen. The speaker expressed no worry about boxing Garcia, even with elbows, though he acknowledged Garcia is a "legit wrestler." He believes his elbows could be an advantage since Garcia isn't accustomed to fighting with them. After their conversation, Garcia tweeted a challenge for an eight-round fight for $100,000. The speaker tweeted back, offering Garcia $1 million cash if he could survive one round with him for a minute. The speaker dismissed this as "trash talking." The speaker reflected on the incident, stating that he now knows not to bet money with Garcia if they do a stream together, or to take the money immediately. He also mentioned that if an Armenian heard about the incident, they might pursue Garcia for the money. The conversation then shifted to a bet the speaker made with Aiden Rose on a fight between Hamzad and Strickland, with the speaker putting $50,000 on Hamzad and Aiden Rose putting $50,000 on Strickland. The speaker acknowledged it's a tough fight, even though Hamzad is his friend, and that Strickland is a strong fighter with experience. The fight is scheduled for May 9th in New Jersey. The speaker was asked about attending the fight, which is a title fight in his weight class. He stated he has to be there and will ask the UFC to let him sit in the first row if he's not fighting. If not, he'll buy a ticket. He believes the cameras will focus on him during the fight, especially if the current champion, Justin, wins. The speaker expressed excitement for the fight and his intention to be there. The host praised Dana White as the best promoter in sports and expressed hope for the speaker to become the first Armenian UFC champion. The speaker promised to bring his belt to the table for another discussion once he wins it, and suggested they might fly to Armenia together to celebrate. The conversation concluded with a discussion about Armenian and Persian food, specifically "Ghormeh Sabzi," which the speaker highly recommended as the "greatest meal in the world." The speaker plans to create food content with it.
