The match between Charles Oliveira and Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 300 took place with extremely attractive script. Under lower than the opponent, but Charles Oliveira was the one who won the initiative in the first half. He almost had a chance to win Arman Tsarukyan early with a tight lock.
After surviving the first half, Arman Tsarukyan showed his best qualities in the remaining 2 rounds. That was realized by him by victory. However, only two -thirds of the Arman Tsarukyan referee won with a close score.
Different from the two referees Adalaide Byrd and Ron McCarthy are the people who dotted Arman Tsarukyan (with the result of 29-28), referee Mike Bell offers the opposite results. He said Charles Oliveira won the first and 3rd half, through which Arman Tsarukyan lost with the score of 28-29.
“I talked to the referee, I lost to the Charles Oliveira in the last match. He admitted that he had made a mistake in the third half when he spot Oliveira won me,” Arman Tsarukyan said. He added: “The referee apologized, and confirmed that he should not score Oliveira.”
If the information of Arman Tsarukyan shared is true, this is one of the rare times the referees admit to making mistakes. Typically, UFC's referee rarely shared the media about how they graded, even with controversial results.
Arman Tsarukyan added: “Fortunately, a false scorer does not affect the final results of the match. If not, my career may have to turn in a very different direction. I have practiced for more than 10 years, and the results may disappear if the match is reversed.”
