Hmmm. Assuncao is under sized and old, but does JZ really deserve to be 2-1 favorite?

I'm not surprised.. he just ko'd healy...

Assuncao is moving up in weight, too, I think (loved having him as dog to bollinger)

Not familiar with:

Anyone have info on them? I know the other 7 bettable combatants.

I know the feeling. Thats why I asked about the JZ price lol barely remember Assuncao other than looking pretty good in his last fight.

Good memory.. and recording all beys and thoughts helps. It ingrains then into memory...

Andrew Whitney's claim to fame is that he's with ATT, and used to date Tecia Torres. She got rid of him at some point.

Freddy Assuncao came back from an injury before he fought Bollinger, and then he got injured in the Bollinger fight iirc, but won by submission and hasn't fought since.

Lotta late substitutions on this card so both Sherdog & Wikipedia aren't currently accurate as to the lineup for Titan FC 40. Veteran heavyweight DJ Linderman replaced Jack May vs two time WSOF title challenger Derrick Mehmen just days ago for example. Anderson Dos Santos has a wild style that ends in finishes. He won the 135 pound title fight at Titan FC 37 against Ricky Simon by submission but didn't earn the belt because he missed weight. Jose Torres & Abdiel Velasquez are both predicting their interim flyweight title fight doesn't go the distance in interviews. I'm hoping for wild fights, chaos and stoppages for the unders even in the bantamweight bout and 125 pound interim title fight. Little round robin to make this card interesting:

Risking $100.00 (10 parlays at $10.00) To Win $278.98

Freddy Assuncao/Gesias Cavalcante Over 3½ (-115)
Abdiel Velazquez/Jose Torres Under 3½ (+130)
Desmond Green (-380) vs James Freeman
Andrew Whitney/Anderson dos Santos Under 2½ (-105)
DJ Linderman/Derrick Mehmen Under 1½ (+140)

Good advice on recording all bets. Something I've never done but will start recording them from Saturday

I see a pic of the main event weigh-in on Twitter. They weighed in on a yacht

man, idk. before the line dropped i was thinking i might hit assuncao as a solid dog (assuming +200 or better).

but the morei think about it, the more i think JZ is the side here. he just dipped to -185. he's gonna have the size edge (not something he usually has at 155). assuncao multiple knee injuries including his last fight... JZ has looked pretty sharp over the past couple years, tho yea, he's prone to gassing. can't really explain the guillard loss.. melvin kinda pulls ko's out of his ass sometimes.

i think JZ is gonna be stronger and a lot more dangerous early. might hit the under, too.

Here are the weigh-in results. JZ Cavalcante & Fredy Assuncao made weight for their title fight. Looks like most others made weight but not all, maybe a couple of catchweights in there. Still can't find a weigh-in video though even after checking Titan's Facebook & Twitter. http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Titan-FC-40-Weighin-Results-JZ-Assuncao-On-Point-109489

Really not much size difference here despite Freddy coming up in weight:

I actually like it. Outdoor weigh-ins and fights are always a nice change of scenery. Would have been cool to stream it, at least on YouTube, Facebook or Periscope for crying out loud.
