Tom Hardy Declines Fight with Arman Tsarukyan at Hype Fighting Event
Actor Tom Hardy has turned down the opportunity to face Arman Tsarukyan at the upcoming Hype Fighting event in Yerevan this December, citing timing conflicts due to his filming schedule.
The highly anticipated matchup was expected to draw significant attention, but Hardy’s declining of the offer has left fans disappointed. According to Hype Fighting, Hardy’s decision was not influenced by financial considerations; rather, it stemmed from his commitment to a filming project that will occupy his schedule until March.
At 48, Hardy is well known not only for his acting skills but also for his passion for martial arts. He holds a purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, trained under renowned instructor Roger Gracie, and frequently participates in regional jiu-jitsu competitions. While his involvement in the world of mixed martial arts might have made this fight appealing, Hardy’s dedication to his film career ultimately took precedence, leaving the future of the fight uncertain as the event approaches.
