Arman Tsarukyan beats Dillon Danis by 10-0 tech fall to win RAF middleweight crossover title
The 10-0 shutout came a day after Tsarukyan swung at Danis as the RAF 14 press conference ended in a brawl.
Arman Tsarukyan beat Dillon Danis by technical fall, 10-0, in the first period of their Real American Freestyle wrestling match to win the inaugural RAF middleweight crossover title in the RAF 14 main event in Las Vegas, shortly after 5am UK time on Saturday.
Tsarukyan took an early point when he forced Danis out of bounds and kept scoring until the match was stopped about 80 seconds in. What he did over Danis as he got up after the win nearly started more trouble, but calm was quickly restored and the two shook hands afterwards.
In his post-match interview, Tsarukyan said the rivalry would only carry on if Danis wanted to fight him in MMA. Danis had lost both of his previous RAF matches, including one against Khamzat Chimaev.
