Sage Northcutt's dizzying debut
Sage Northcutt suffered his first career loss by way of knockout and it came at a worrying price.
Northcutt competed in his ONE championship debut in Singapore, Friday night. He did not get an easy route into the promotion as he faced an esteemed Cosmo Alexandre. ''Super'' Sage Northcutt (11-3) was KO'd in devastating fashion by Alexandre (8-1) in only 29 seconds of the first round.
There were few worries directly following the bout as Northcutt seemed active and alert in the ring. However, all that meets the eye is not true. Sage shared on social media that the blow caused 8 fractures that required intensive surgery.
There is no update as to when Sage Northcutt will return to fight, but he still has clear promise and potential moving forward. The MMA world will have to wait and see whether he will be back and better than before.
