Luis Gurule detailed the playful naming evolution within his fight team at UFC Vegas 104, where teammates create a rotating team name each week. They humorously shift between names like 'The Boys' and 'Rawdog and Associates'. As it was Gurule's fight week, he opted for 'Misfits MMA', reflecting his image. Gurule plans to face 10-fight UFC veteran Ode Osbourne and will rely on constant pressure and a potential second-round finish through ground and pound to secure victory.
"It's really that none of us has come up with a name that's stuck. Everyone's like, 'no, this is the name. No, this is the name'. One day it's 'The Boys'...it's just like a fun running joke at this point."
"I got to make the name this week. So we're 'Misfits MMA' over there at the UFC gym in Lone Tree. I think Misfits MMA is good."
"He's super fast, counter striker, southpaw, but he doesn't really work very well off the bottom and he gets tired pretty quickly. So I think just that constant pressure...I think that's just gonna wear on him."
"Specifically, I'd say a second round of ground and pound finish."
