The complete lineup for Resurrection Fighting Alliance 37 is set, the promotion recently announced.

The April 15 card, which takes place at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, S.D., will be headlined by a light heavyweight title bout between Rafael Viana and Devin Clark. In the co-main event, Leandro Higo will vie for the vacant 135-pound belt against Joey Miolla. The six-bout main card will air on AXS-TV at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.

Four other bouts will round out the main draw: Brian Camozzi vs. Jordon Larson at welterweight; John Poppie vs. Joseph Gigliotti at middleweight; Matthew Lopez vs. Eli Finn at bantamweight; and Logan Storley vs. Scott Futrell at welterweight. In a noteworthy preliminary contest, three-time UFC veteran David Michaud will face 27-fight pro Chris Hugh at 170 pounds.

Viana is 6-0 over the course of his pro career, which has taken place entirely in his native Brazil thus far. A native of Sioux Falls, Clark is 5-0, with a pair of triumphs under the RFA banner.

Higo will bring a six-fight winning streak into the bantamweight title tilt. Most recently, he stopped Melvin Blumer in the opening stanza at RFA 32 last November. Anchored at Power MMA Team in Arizona, Miolla has won eight of his nine pro outings.
