UFC President Dana White said Sage Northcutt was let go from the organization on a recent episode of the Unfiltered Podcast. Whether that characterization is true, Northcutt is certainly moving on, likely to ONE Championship. For a fighter only 21 years of age with a 6-2 record, this is a curious and not all great development. However, as I argue in this video, there is some bright side to this worth examining.

Lol Sage joining Team Alpha male was probably the worst thing
Lobov with such a shitty record is still in the organisation but one of probably most promising young prospects somehow is not worth their time
the bottom line is that he has not attracted the demographic they hoped for. He has less social media followers than Shayna Baszler. He does not put enough butts in seats than his salary request would justify
Sage is winning. Mike perry cant win a round but gets main events
could you say Sage got North-cut from the UFC
plus…his dad hates dana white because he is an athiest
I'm not sure why they let this kid go
His beginning wasn't as bad as the hype was, initially
but he's been showing off his potential
He's also been clearly working on his ground game
He's really good now and I can see him being a champion in few years
If anything, they need to REALLY let Paige Vanzant go
There are hot girls who can fight significantly better also if that's what they want
She's just not a UFC level fighter
She really should just be a IG girl
Sage should just marry PVZ, they look good together!
Dana is the one directly responsible for Sage being “overhyped.” Sage has conducted himself like a true professional during his time in the UFC. I personally wish him nothing but the best.
Fair point.
