On Saturday, July 18, Titan FC hosted its 34th event from the Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo.
In the night’s main event, the promotion’s lightweight title was on the line as champion Pat Healy locked horns with last-minute challenger Marcus Edwards. Healy, a UFC and Strikeforce veteran, captured the belt at Titan FC 33 with a decision win over Kurt Kinser. He was originally slated to square off with Mike Ricci, but the Canadian was forced out due to injury. The 26-year-old Edwards stepped up having won six of his last seven. Nine of his 10 career wins had come before the final bell.
The event also featured three other title fights as featherweight champion Kurt Holobaugh faced off with unbeaten challenger Andre Harrison, bantamweight Brett Johns, who was stripped of his title for missing weight, clashed with Kansas City’s own Anthony Gutierrez, while another Kansas City product, Tim Elliott, met Brazilian Iliarde Santos for the vacant flyweight strap.
