This is the live blog for Arman Tsarukyan vs. Urijah Faber, the main event match for RAF 8 from Temple’s Liacouras Center in Philadelphia on Saturday night.Originally set to be the co-main event of the evening, Tsarukyan vs. Faber was elevated to the main event slot after Henry Cejudo withdrew from his bout with Merab Dvalishvili due to injury just hours before the event.Tsarukyan has become the face of RAF over the past few months, competing in the past three RAF events, despite a minimal wrestling background.

Tsarukyan is 3-0 over those appearances, and figures to be a massive favorite against the undersized Faber, who is also significantly older.A former WEC champion and collegiate wrestler at UC-Davis, despite being 46 years old, Faber has spent his post-MMA career engaging in sporadic grappling matches and other competitions. He made his RAF debut at RAF 6, losing to Henry Cejudo via Tech Fall.Check out the Tsarukyan vs. Faber live blog below.Period 1Period 2Period 3Official DecisionPost Fight
