For those that missed the announcement, the Resurrection Fighting Alliance, owned and operated by Ed Soares, has been doing big things lately. Just this week they announced a partnership with Adidas and their acquisition of the rights to the octagon cage design, pushing them to the forefront of US regional MMA. When watching an RFA card it’s almost certain that you’ll be watching future UFC talent. That of course makes tonight’s card all the more important.
Several notable prospects will be fighting tonight including undefeated bantamweight Pedro Munhoz and undefeated heavyweight and former national champion wrestler Steve Mocco. Former UFC fighters Kevin Casey, Chris Spang, and Jeff Curran are also on the card making it a night filled with solid talent. The card will be airing live on AXS TV starting at 10 PM Eastern/7 Pacific, so check it out and be sure to follow the discussion live on Bloody Elbow.
