Arman Tsarukyan steps on Dillon Danis after RAF 14 win before the pair shake hands
Tsarukyan won RAF's inaugural crossover middleweight championship by technical fall, a day after their press conference ended in a brawl.
Arman Tsarukyan stepped on Dillon Danis as soon as he had beaten him by technical fall in the RAF 14 main event in Las Vegas, and security stepped in to keep the pair apart.
The win gave Tsarukyan RAF's inaugural crossover middleweight championship. Danis stood and shook Tsarukyan's hand after the match, a day after their pre-event press conference finished in a brawl.
In his post-match interview with Chael Sonnen, Tsarukyan said the feud would not be over until the pair fought in the cage. "No it's over if we fight together," he said.
Danis came into the match off RAF losses to Khamzat Chimaev, Tsarukyan's teammate, and Colby Covington. Tsarukyan wrestles again in Abu Dhabi in three weeks and hopes his next UFC fight is against lightweight champion Justin Gaethje.
