In a turn of events that shocked the UFC community, an alleged confrontation between Bobby Green and Arman Tsarukyan has created heated tensions leading up to their co-headlining bouts at UFC Austin. Green took to social media earlier this week, accusing Tsarukyan and his associates of attacking him at the fighter hotel ahead of the highly anticipated event.

The incident unfolded at the hotel, where a group approached Green, leading to a physical altercation. Green claimed that he punched someone who he believed to be Tsarukyan. However, Tsarukyan's footage released on Friday tells a different story.

The video begins with Tsarukyan approaching a seated Green, confronting him about alleged derogatory remarks. Tsarukyan clearly states, "You're talking s*** about me." Green responds by repeating Tsarukyan's words and telling him to "get your people out of my face."

A verbal exchange quickly escalates between the two fighters, with Tsarukyan suggesting a one-on-one confrontation and Green responding, "We can do whatever you want to do." Tensions rise, and Green appears to shove Tsarukyan's shoulder, to which Tsarukyan retaliates by briefly grabbing Green's neck before they are separated.

Tsarukyan and his team initially head towards the elevators, but upon hearing that a still agitated Green is lingering in the lobby, they return to confront him for a second time. Green can be heard repeatedly shouting, "You started it," as the intensity of the situation heightens.

However, the incident takes a different turn when someone informs Tsarukyan's team that the police are on their way and reminds them that "this isn't the WWE," leading to a halt in the altercation. The released footage ends at this point, leaving fans and observers with lingering questions about the aftermath.

Both Green and Tsarukyan will need to put this incident behind them as they prepare to face their respective opponents on Saturday night. Tsarukyan is set to battle Beneil Dariush in the main event, while Green is slated to fight Jalin Turner in the co-headlining bout.

Should both Green and Tsarukyan emerge victorious from their fights, the seeds of a potential grudge match have undeniably been planted. The controversy surrounding the hotel altercation could fuel future animosity and rivalry between the two fighters, leaving fans eagerly awaiting any developments that may arise after their bouts.

The UFC community will be closely watching how Green, Tsarukyan, Dariush, and Turner perform on Saturday night, and any hint of tension between Green and Tsarukyan after their respective matches could set the stage for a highly anticipated grudge match in the near future.
