Arman Tsarukyan and Colby Covington set for July 18 showdown in Milwaukee

Arman Tsarukyan and Colby Covington are set to meet on July 18 in Milwaukee, bringing an end to a feud that has been building for months.

The two fighters have spent the better part of the year trading shots back and forth while pushing for a match inside the RAF Wrestling arena. Both men have put together impressive win streaks, making this one of the more anticipated bouts of the year.

An unspoken rule had been keeping them apart, as active UFC fighters aren’t allowed to face each other outside the promotion. To get around that, Covington announced his retirement from MMA, clearing the path for this showdown to finally happen.
