Arman Tsarukyan’s climb toward the top of the Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight division brings him into contact with constant peril.

The surging 26-year-old contender will face American Top Team stablemate Joaquim Silva in the UFC on ESPN 47 co-headliner this Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Tsarukyan has rattled off six wins in seven outings and looks very much like a future title challenger at 155 pounds. He last competed at UFC Fight Night 216, where he took a unanimous decision from Damir Ismagulov in their three-round encounter on Dec. 17. Silva, meanwhile, has lost three of his past five bouts after starting his career 12-0. He last fought on Oct. 1, when he brought down Jesse Ronson with a knee strike and follow-up punches in the second round of their UFC Fight Night 211 pairing.

As Tsarukyan and Silva take aim at one another in Sin City, a look at some of the numbers that have accompanied them to this point:

26: Years of age for Tsarukyan, who was born on Oct. 11, 1996 in Akhalkalaki, Georgia.

5: Tsarukyan victories by submission, accounting for 26% of his career total (19). His methods of choice: three rear-naked chokes, one anaconda choke and one guillotine choke. Tsarukyan holds seven other victories by knockout or technical knockout (37%) and seven more by decision (37%).

177: Significant strikes by which Tsarukyan has outlanded the opposition across his eight appearances in the UFC. He has connected on 388 such strikes while absorbing only 211 in return.

35: Rounds completed by Tsarukyan as a professional mixed martial artist. He has gone the distance on nine different occasions and carries a 7-2 record in those bouts.

.873: Cumulative winning percentage between the three opponents—Mateusz Gamrot, Islam Makhachev and Alexander Belikh—who have defeated Tsarukyan. They boast a combined record of 55-8.

34: Years of age for Silva, who was born in Anapolis, Brazil, on Feb. 5, 1989.

7: Silva wins by knockout or technical knockout, accounting for 58% of his career total (12). His list of UFC victims: Ronson, Jared Gordon and Andrew Holbrook. Silva owns three other wins by submission (25%) and two more by decision (17%).

6: Seconds needed for Silva to bury Leandro Vasconcelos with punches under The Hill Fighters banner on Sept. 20, 2014. More than eight years later, it remains his fastest finish to date.
