Sage Northcutt Reacts to ONE Championship Knockout Loss

By Nolan King - May 18, 2019

Friday morning was a rough one for former UFC fighter Sage Northcutt.

In his promotional debut, the popular middleweight was brutally knocked out at ONE Championship: Enter The Dragon. Facing off against Cosmo Alexandre, Northcutt ate a vicious punch just seconds into the fight.

A follow-up shot was all the referee needed to see in order to call off the fight just thirty-three seconds into Round 1.

Northcutt, 23, was riding a three-fight win streak prior to signing with ONE.

Saturday night, Northcutt issued a statement via Instagram, with an image showing him sitting in a hospital bed. Northcutt stated he underwent a nine-hour surgery to fix eight different fractures.

Sage Northcutt’s entire statement can be read below:
