UFC Fight Night Odds, Picks & Predictions: Trevin Giles vs. Louis Cosce

Trevin Giles (14-4-0) vs. Louis Cosce (7-1-0)

One of my top UFC predictions for this card is this welterweight bout between Trevin Giles and Louis Cosce. On average, between these two since joining the UFC, their average rounds come in at just 1.8, with 90% of their combined wins coming inside of the distance.

Ring rust will also be a factor in this fight, as Cosce will be making his return to the octagon for the first time since 2020. The loss, which came in the third round via KO/TKO, was not just his first professional defeat but his first to ever leave the first round.

Giles has a similar proclivity for violence inside the octagon. In his 28 fights as a professional, just three have gone to the judges, as his striking is amongst the best in the lower half of this division.

Coming into Saturday, these two are averaging a combined 11.31 significant strikes per minute and 2.6 knockdowns per 15 minutes, as this fight has all the makings of a dramatic finish. With little speak of in the way of grappling history, we can expect these two to stand and strike early and often.

For me, all signs point towards this one finishing well under 2.5 rounds.

Bet: Under 2.5 Rounds (-150)
