Armen Gulyan

President and head coach of Lion Heart MMA Academy in Yerevan, and co-founder and president of ARMAT Fight Show. An active professional featherweight with a 9-0 undefeated record.

His pro career ran mostly on the Russian regional circuit — Fight Nights Global, GFC, and Russian Cagefighting Championship (RCC). Foundations: sambo and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. His last documented bout was at RCC 7 in Yekaterinburg on December 14, 2019: a third-round submission over Aleksandr Osetrov. Earlier, at Golden Team Championship 1 in Moscow on November 3, 2017, he TKO'd Artem Kolosov in the first round.

The pivot to coaching and promotion is the infrastructure project. Lion Heart MMA Academy is a non-profit social-sports center at Manandyan 33/20 in the Shengavit district of Yerevan; its main gym opened on November 22, 2025.

With Eduard Vartanyan he co-founded ARMAT Fight Show. The inaugural AFS 1 ran at Tashir Arena on April 18-19, 2026, with a 15 million dram prize purse — the largest ever in Armenian MMA. He also co-hosts the "Fight Show Podcast" (YouTube @FIGHTSHOW) with Vartanyan.
