Russian fighter Arman Tsarukyan in an interview with , he spoke about a bad joke during a press conference with the participation of Olympic champion Kayla Harrison.
Earlier, during media events dedicated to the UFC 300 tournament, Tsarukyan, responding to a question from blogger Vaho Brooklyn, continued a sexist joke addressed to UFC representative Kayla Harrison. The episode was then widely shared on social media and translated into English. Tsarukyan and Harrison will perform at the same tournament; they will train at the same gym in Florida.
— I understand that you just haven’t found the best way to answer the question which, in its mildest form, sounds like “how often would you like to have sex with the girl next to you “?
– Well yes, in fact, I thought between “yes” and “no”. I thought “no”, maybe she will be offended. I chose “yes”. In general, I answered the question wrong.
—If you imagined now that you were rewinding, what would your reaction be?
– Yes, I will send him his response.
“You said you and Kayla had a conversation. How did everything go?
— I just explained the situation. She said, “No problem, but I just asked you at the conference, what did he say? It was necessary to translate.” I replied that he asked a stupid question. And so that you would not be offended right away at the conference, I thought about saying it later during the tournament. In general, she understood that everything was fine. We train together in the same gym.
— Did your family react normally?
– Yes, well. No one interferes with my work there.
— If Kayla Harrison and Vaho Brooklyn find themselves in the same room, how will it end?
“Harrison will definitely score.” I think she will kill a lot of men. It’s just a walking machine. The men in the gym train with her and she beats the men. And here, even more, Vaho. What can he do? – Tsarukyan told .
On April 13, Arman Tsarukyan will face Charles Oliveira at UFC 300 in Las Vegas.
