Resurrection Fighting Alliance returns next month for its first show in California, featuring a delayed bantamweight title fight. “RFA 9: Munhoz vs. Koch” is set for Aug. 16 at StubHub Center in Los Angeles. Promotion officials recently announced the fight card, which will have a six-fight main card that airs live on AXS TV. In the main event, the vacant bantamweight title will be on the line as Pedro Munhoz (8-0) meets Keoni Koch (5-0), the older brother of UFC featherweight standout Erik Koch . “I am so excited to bring the RFA to Los Angeles and to give fans in my hometown this championship title fight between undefeated Pedro Munhoz and undefeated Keoni Koch,” RFA President Ed Soares stated. “This fight not only gives the winner the RFA world bantamweight title, he also gets to prove on live national television that he’s one of the toughest rising stars in the division.” Munhoz was supposed to fight Koch at RFA 8, but Koch was forced out with an injury.
