UFC Lightweight Contender Arman Tsarukyan Boasts $1.5 Million Net Worth Thanks To UFC Career Earnings & Various Endorsements

As the #1 lightweight contender in the UFC, here at SportsCasting we have decided to take an in-depth look at the career of Arman Tsarukyan. This includes his net worth, career earnings and endorsement deals.
Arman Tsarukyan Net Worth Estimated At $1.5 Million
Arman Tsarukyan was last seen in action at UFC 300, defeating former champion Charles Oliveira via decision to earn his shot at the UFC Lightweight Title. Tsarukyan was a slight favourite with the best UK bookmakers to beat ‘Do Bronx’, which he did so to earn his maiden shot at UFC gold.
In the aftermath of the bout, SportsCasting have taken an in-depth look at Arman Tsarukyan’s net worth, career earnings and endorsement deals. The 28-year-old’s net worth is estimated to be in the region of $1.5 million.
‘Akhalkalakets’ has earned some highly lucrative purses throughout his UFC career, but will earn even more going forward should he become UFC champion. Arman Tsarukyan’s record is an impressive 22-3 currently, which includes nine wins of his 11 fights inside the UFC.
His only two losses in the UFC came in his first fight in the organisation to Islam Makhachev, losing via razor thin decision. Makhachev was the favourite with the best UFC betting sites in the UK to win, but Tsarukyan did extremely well on debut. His only other UFC defeat came to Mateusz Gamrot three years ago.
EssentiallySports now estimates his net worth to be at least $1.5 million. This is majorly thanks to his career as a mixed martial artist, but also thanks to having an extremely wealthy father.
Since winning on his UFC debut back in April 2019, Arman Tsarukyan has earned millions of dollars, which we will go into detail with later. He is an incredibly rich man and won’t be worrying about his bank balance anytime soon, that is for sure.
The 28-year-old’s net worth has seen a huge increase from ventures outside of the UFC cage, as his other main earners outside of MMA are through a variety of endorsements.
Arman Tsarukyan Career Earnings
The 1996-born MMA fighter has seemingly earned far more money since signing for Dana White and the UFC, particularly after headlining his own UFC Fight Night cards and being high up some pay-per-view events too.
Looking at his UFC purses to date, Arman Tsarukyan reportedly earned his biggest payday for his emphatic Round 1 knockout over Beneil Dariush in 2023. ‘Akhalkalakets’ was reportedly pair $506,000 for the bout, which is the biggest of his career so far.
He has earned seven-figure paydays on six other occasions too, most recently at UFC 300. His purse for that UFC 300 victory over Charles Oliveira has been disclosed at $158,000, but is likely to be far higher than that given the magnitude and successful of the entire event.
With his relatively short yet successful career in the UFC, this means that Arman Tsarukyan’s total career earnings inside the octagon equates to roughly $2 million (£1.6m). This is lower than far fighters such as Alex Pereira, Islam Makhachev, Conor McGregor and Jon Jones to name but a few, but is still a lot of money.
Tsarukyan will continue to earn millions of pounds as a UFC fighter going forward, with some potentially huge fights on the horizon for him in 2025 and beyond. He will have his sights set on challenging for the UFC Lightweight Title, and winning it in the not so distant future.
Below is a list of the last 10 of Tsarukyan’s UFC fight and how much he earned (in dollars) in each fight.

Arman Tsarukyan Endorsement Deals
Another reason why Arman Tsarukyan has a reported net worth of $1.5 million and has earned upward of $2 million in his MMA career is due to his various sponsors and endorsement deals.
Tsarukyan has of course gained the majority of his wealth from mixed martial arts, but he does have some lucrative brand deals as well. The fighter is endorsed by Venum, EM Exotic Rentals, Full Violence, PARI, Sanabul and Azat Mard to name but a few of his partnerships.
These sponsors are a big help in ‘Akhalkalakets’ being the success he is today. Having long-term endorsement deals helps fighters pay for their training camps, bring in the best sparring partners and ensure they are fully prepared for their upcoming fight.
The Armenian has earned over $2 million during his time in the UFC and is now one of the best 155-pound fighters in the world. He has also earned a fortune outside of the octagon from endorsements. However, an exact figure is unknown on how much the Dagestani MMA phenom has earned outside of the cage.
As previously mentioned, a fair portion of Arman Tsarukyan’s riches also come through his father. His dad is a highly successful businessman and entrepreneur, hence why Tsarukyan’s net worth has been massively inflated.
The 28-year-old has seen a huge influx of cash come into his possession through family riches as well as his highly successful MMA career.
