Brian Ortega (8-0) and  Keoni Koch (5-1) gave the fans everything they wanted and more in the RFA 12 main event, fighting hard for 25 minutes to determine which man would go home with the vacant Resurrection Fighting Alliance featherweight title. The headlining bout, which took place at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and aired on AXS TV, saw Ortega outpoint Koch by split decision over five rounds in a close and highly competitive affair. It was a grappling and submission-heavy contest, with both men having their high points and coming close to the finish. In the end it was Ortega who was a step ahead for most of the fight and got the better of the exchanges. On multiple occasions Ortega nearly finished the fight, but Koch refused to give up and competed valiantly until the final bell. The pre-Ortega crowd stood strong behind the local fighter, and in the end left satisfied, as “T-City” emerged victorious.
