Michael Caliendo beats Jordan Burroughs 7-5 at RAF 14

Michael Caliendo got the better of wrestling great Jordan Burroughs at RAF 14, taking a 7-5 decision at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, MMA Fighting reported.

The result headlined a night of freestyle wrestling that also featured several of combat sports' best-known names. Arman Tsarukyan faced Dillon Danis in the main event, while Khamzat Chimaev and Robbie Lawler were slotted into the co-main event.

A two-point margin separated the pair in the Caliendo-Burroughs bout, a tight scoreline in a sport where a single takedown can swing a match. The report gives no further detail on how the points were scored.

The rest of the card

Several wrestlers finished their matches early, while one fighter-turned-wrestler won by pin:

• Ridge Lovett, Bella Mir, Brendan Allen and Dylan Ragusin each won by tech fall, the result awarded when a wrestler builds a decisive points lead.
• Pat Downey pinned Magomed Magomedkerimov in the second round.

Four tech falls on a single card point to a number of lopsided matches, with Downey's second-round pin the only fall recorded among the results reported.

Why it matters

• Burroughs is among the best-known names in American wrestling, so a loss by two points on a card of this profile is the night's headline result.
• The main event and co-main event pair mixed-martial-arts figures in wrestling rules, with Tsarukyan against Danis and Chimaev alongside Lawler.
• Allen's tech fall adds another result to the card for a fighter better known for his work in MMA.

The report does not state the outcomes of the main event or co-main event. Only the matchups themselves were reported, so how those bouts finished remains outside the confirmed results from the night.
