TITAN FC 33: MMA TONITE ON CBS SN

The CBS Sports Network features MMA action tonite as Titan FC 33 airs from The Aeroplex in Mobile, Alabama with a stacked card of twelve bouts.   Six of the scheduled fights have lines up at the books, and four of the bouts are title fights as Titan FC is putting on a solid event.  Below is a review of the bouts on the main card that feature odds, and our video blog that follows gets into the details on the odds.

Featherweight 5 rounds (TITLE FIGHT)
Kurt Holobaugh
Desmond Green

Notes: Green is (14-3) overall, and he has gone (2-0) since signing with Titan.   Holobaugh has won four fights in a row since going (0-1) in the UFC and being cut back in April of 2013.  A win for either man is expected to result in a call to the UFC stated promoter Jeff Aronson on a recent podcast interview.

 

Heavyweight 5 rounds (TITLE FIGHT)
Chase Gormley 
Jon Madsen

Notes:  Madsen is a solid (8-1) as a pro and he owns an impressive (4-1) record in the UFC.  Gormley is (11-4) overall, but he has gone (3-0) in 2014 after taknig off all of 2013 .  Gormley too, has UFC experience, having gone (0-2) back in 2009 and 2010.

 

Lightweight 5 rounds (TITLE FIGHT)
Kurt Kinser 
Pat Healy 

Notes:  Kinser is an undefated (8-0) and looking to add Healy’s veteran scalp to his resume.  Back in January of 2013, Healy beat an undefeated up and comer named Kurt Holobaugh, who is now in tonight’s main event, so he will be looking to again de-rail the rising young gun.

 

Featherweight 3 rounds
Andre Harrison 
Cody Bollinger 

Note:  Bollinger has a strong (17-3) overall record, and he is looking to win his second fight in a row since failing in a bid for a title with the World Series of Fighting.  In Harrison, he gets an undefeated (8-0) fighter who already got a taste of TItan FC competition, winnig his last match in December against aaron Neveu.

 

Bantamweight 5 rounds (TITLE FIGHT)
Walel Watson 
Brett Johns 

Note:  Veteran Walil Watson (13-7) faces off against undefeated (10-0) Brett Johns.  This is a step up fight for Johns, as Watson is a UFC veteran who took the UFC Bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw the distance, so we will find out about John’s potential here in a hurry.  in his last outing, Watson spoiled Anothiny Gutierrez’ perfect (5-0) record.

 

Bantamweight 3 rounds
Austin Lyons
Anthony Gutierrez

Notes:  Gutierrez is looking to bounce back from his first loss (5-1) and he is facing Austin Lyons, a fighter who has won two fights in a row and has a strong (12-3) record overall.
