UFC veteran Ode Osbourne has been around the block a few times. A Dana White’s Contender Series alum, the Jamaican fighter passed five years with the promotion in 2025. This hasn’t come without ups and downs, as Osbourne recently suffered a three-fight losing streak, putting his career in jeopardy. Luckily, the 11-fight UFC veteran got back to winning ways in April, cashing in a nasty KO win over debutant Luis Gurule.
Osbourne is known for appearances at many UFC events, with this year’s 2025 Hall of Fame Ceremony being no different. ‘The Jamaican Sensation’ strutted down the red carpet with a calm outfit, but some blinging jewelry.
Cageside Press’ Gabriel Gonzalez caught up with the ecstatic UFC flyweight,
“I’m just as blessed as Max Holloway, living the dream. 12-year-old me, a boy coming from Kingston, Jamaica, to being in the UFC on the red carpet, being on my fourth contract with the UFC. At one point, I was nine years old walking through the woods of Jamaica, I never would’ve thought that this would’ve been a possibility.”
When asked about his consistent appearances around UFC fight weeks and events, Osbourne detailed his appreciation.
“I came from a third-world country. No hot water, no bathrooms inside. So I’m always happy because I appreciate the little things, and these are the big things, so it makes me even more happy. I think gratitude is one of the best qualities a person can have, waking up every day and being grateful. I try to be grateful every single day about the most I can.”
