Northcutt didn’t compete since his match against Cosmo Alexandre, when the 27-year-old sustained a number of serious injuries to his face.
The injuries kept him out of the octagon for years, and so did the COVID pandemic.
However, “Super” Sage is now back at it again. With this win, he improved his professional MMA record to 12-3 and earned the $50,000 post-fight bonus.
