Why this is the rookie
TCDB's card list for Tsarukyan starts in 2022, with no 2019–2021 cards despite his April 2019 UFC debut. Of his RC-flagged 2022 cards, Prizm #187 released first (TCDB: March 25, 2022, vs. Donruss May 6 and Select July 1) and shows a printed RC shield. SportsCardsPro tracks it with his other 2022 base cards.
Arman's first licensed card. TCDB lists nothing before 2022, and 2022 Prizm UFC released March 25, 2022, ahead of Donruss (May) and Select (July). That makes #187 his earliest RC and the one with the Prizm parallel run.
2022 Donruss UFC #170 is often sold as a 'Rated Rookie', but Cardboard Connection's checklist puts the Rated Rookies at #201–220 and #170 has no Rated Rookie logo.
