UFC Vegas 105 video: Ode Osbourne sends Luis Gurule flying for TKO upset
Ode Osbourne wasn't having the easiest of times with Luis Gurule on Saturday. But in the blink of an eye, the penny dropped and Gurule knew he'd been in the cage with a veteran of double-digit UFC fights. Osbourne (13-8 MMA, 5-6 UFC) drilled Gurule (10-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) with a perfect left hand that literally sent the UFC newcomer flying off his feet. A few punches on the canvas later, Osbourne had what might wind up being one of the signature wins of his career. Osbourne's stoppage of Gurule, who was more than a 2-1 favorite, came at the 1:54 mark of the middle frame of the flyweight bout at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Check out the highlight from the main card below.

Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne prediction, pick, start time for UFC on ESPN 65
Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne meet Saturday on the main card of UFC on ESPN 65 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Check out this quick breakdown of the matchup from MMA Junkie analyst Dan Tom. Last event: 3-3 UFC main cards, 2025: 25-22-1 Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne UFC on ESPN 65 preview Gurule (10-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) makes his UFC debut off a contract-winning decision over Nick Piccininni on DWCS this past October. He'll get a stiff test in longtime UFC flyweight Osbourne (12-8 MMA, 4-6 UFC), who is mired in a three-fight skid and looking for his first win in more than two years. Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne UFC on ESPN 65 expert pick, prediction In an audible that actually suits their card format, the UFC matchmakers have smartly substituted a lower-level heavyweight affair with a flyweight fight between Luis Gurule and Ode Osbourne. Although there's an argument that Osbourne should've gotten the nod (or at the very least a draw) in his most recent appearance at UFC Noche, the Jamaican-American sadly finds himself on a three-fight skid heading into this fight. I really wish the UFC matchmakers were kinder to some of their more proven action fighters who are on losing skids rather than pitting them against prospects, but that's the game, I suppose. I'd love to take a flier on Osbourne to tax Gurule's wrestle-boxing archetype with power kicks from the rear, but Gurule is training with other high-level southpaws and strikers like Brandon Royval and Cory Sandhagen who should have him prepared for the variety coming his way. More importantly, Gurule – despite being less proven than Osbourne on paper – does appear to look the part when it comes to his ability to flow with transitions and punctuate his presence within a fight. I feel like Gurule's head-and-arm choke could be something to watch out for, but suspect that the 31-year-old's steady pressure will allow him to pull away down the stretch for a decision win. Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne UFC on ESPN 65 odds The oddsmakers and the public favor the UFC newcomer, listing Gurule (-260) and Osbourne (+205) via FanDuel. Luis Gurule vs. Ode Osbourne UFC on ESPN 65 start time, how to watch Gurule and Osbourne are expected to walk to the cage at approximately 9:45 p.m. ET. The fight airs on ESPN and streams on ESPN+.

UFC on ESPN 65: Ode' Osbourne vs. Luis Gurule odds, picks and predictions
In a 3-round flyweight bout on the main card, Ode' Osbourne and Luis Gurule meet at UFC on ESPN 65 Saturday at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. Let's analyze BetMGM Sportsbook's odds around the UFC on ESPN 65: Osbourne vs. Gurule odds, and make our expert picks and predictions. The prelims start at 6 p.m. ET with the main card beginning at 9 p.m. (ESPN2/ESPN+). Records: Osbourne (12-8-0) | Gurule (10-0-0) The 33-year-old Jamaican southpaw Osbourne is looking to halt a 3-bout losing skid. He lost via unanimous decision last time out at UFC 306 – Riyadh Season Noche UFC against Ronaldo Rodriguez. Prior to that, he suffered submission losses to Jafel Filho and Asu Almabayev. His last victory was a split-decision win over Charles Johnson on Feb. 25, 2023. Osbourne is 12-8 in his pro MMA career, and he is 5-2 via KO/TKO, including a 2-2 record via the method at the UFC level. His weakness is in the ground game, where he has lost 3 times via submission. Gurule is making his UFC debut. He picked up a split-decision win against Nick Piccininni in Dana White's Contender Series: Season 8, Week 10. In his last 5 pro bouts, he has won via decision 4 times, with a submission win for a championship belt at Fury Fighting Championship 96 against Jacob Silva Sept. 22, 2024. Osbourne enters with more experience at the upper levels of mixed martial arts, and the southpaw has an impressive 9-inch advantage. He'll be able to keep Gurule at a distance, as a result of that huge reach advantage. Watch this card with ESPN+ by signing up here. UFC on ESPN 65: Osbourne vs. Gurule odds Provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:40 a.m. ET. Fight result (2-way line) : Osbourne +220 (bet $100 to win $220) | Gurule -275 (bet $275 to win $100) : Osbourne +220 (bet $100 to win $220) | Gurule -275 (bet $275 to win $100) Total rounds: 2.5 (Over -135 | Under +100) 2.5 (Over -135 | Under +100) Will the fight go the distance? (Yes +100 | No -140) UFC on ESPN 65: Osbourne vs. Gurule picks and predictions OSBOURNE (+220) is worth a roll of the dice for the chance to multiply up more than 2 times your potential return. The veteran is taking on Gurule, who has never lost in his pro career. But, he is making his UFC debut, and he enters with a huge disadvantage in reach. Osbourne will be able to keep himself outside of striking distance from Gurule's devastating punching power. Osbourne should try to get this fight to the canvas as soon as possible, as that's his best bet to spring the victory. OSBOURNE BY KO/TKO, DQ OR SUBMISSION (+450) for the chance to multiply up by 4 1/2 times is also worth a play. UNDER 2.5 ROUNDS (+105) is worth a look at plus-money, as Osbourne looks for the submission victory. You don't necessarily need to declare a winner playing the Under, and a KO/TKO by Gurule could also help cash this bet. NO (+100): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? is worth a look at even-money, as 4 of the past 6 fights for Osbourne have finished inside the distance. While Gurule has had just 1 of his past 5 fights finish inside the distance, this is a huge step up in competition, and we're likely to see this one end before Round 3 begins.
