Arman Tsarukyan vs. Dillon Danis squared off earlier tonight (Fri., Oct. 23, 2026) at RAF 14 LIVE on FOX Nation from inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada. To the surprise of absolutely nobody, Tsarukyan was able to win easily.
The match began with a slap from Tsarukyan, and then the Armenian talent quickly put up a 3-0 lead with a snap down and step-out. Danis was able to resist the first gut wrench attempts and return to his feet. Once back in the open, Tsarukyan scored one more step-out and then snapped Danis to the floor. Danis briefly tried to roll into a kneebar — he is a jiu-jitsu guy after all — and then was rolled twice to bring the points total to 10-0.
Just like that, Tsarukyan defeated his opponent via tech fall in about a minute.
Everyone held their breath in anticipation for the brawl that was surely coming … and it didn’t really happen! Tsarukyan intentionally stepped on Danis while walking off, which caused security to rush onto the mat, but there was no further escalation from Danis or any of the teams.
Check out the video highlights below:
Sadly, the only real hope of this mismatch getting interesting was some kind of post-match brawl. Instead, Tsarukyan picked up another effortless win, while Danis scored another paycheck more for his infamous trolling antics than freestyle wrestling ability. I don’t see how RAF benefits from putting their world-class wrestlers below the UFC fighter squash matches, but that’s the current strategy.
