To be the best, you have to beat the best. It’s cliche, but that’s pretty much what Pedro Munhoz is thinking these days. And he thinks one of those “best” is Jeff Curran , who stands in the way of him winning a title and getting his name out there to the masses. Munhoz (8-0) meets Curran (34-15) in the main event of RFA 9 on Saturday, and Resurrection Fighting Alliance’s bantamweight title is up for grabs. The fight takes place at StubHub Center in Los Angeles. A six-fight main card, headlined by Munhoz-Curran, airs live on AXS TV.

A six-fight main card airs live on AXS TV. “Titles are great, and especially this late in my career,” Curran told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio).
