Dana White Speaks on Sage Northcutt Leaving the UFC

[@karlcarling6642]

UFC needs to treat their fighters better than they do, Sage is quality and they’ll miss him in the future

[@dixoncider4684]

Ah, he'll be back. Kids young yet. He'll be more comfortable fighting guys at 170 there than the UFC, better for his health,.won't ever feel the need to cut down to 155. As well, he will make more money there than the UFC can justify paying him. It's a win for everyone involved.

[@karlcarling6642]

Dixon Cider I hope he’ll be back sooner rather than later

Bryan Bam Bam Barberena beat sage northcutt in the UFC in the second round in 2016 , sage left to get the lost erased because when sage fought Cosmo Alexander and Cosmo broke sages Face in 17 places , sage northcutts record was 15 wins and ZERO losses sage northcutts Career is OVER

[@MakeYouFeelBetterNow]

I think a guy like Sage leaving is bad for the UFC. Sage is better and more entertaining than the majority of guys the UFC has on the roster.

[@curtflirt2]

This is what I am saying.

[@PurpleRain500]

MakeYouFeelBetterNow This is true.

they wanted to keep sage. sage found a better opportunity.

[@MrLinder]

and then he got KO:d in ONE

[@ZeppelinTheRott]

Lol yeah to get knocked the fucked out

[@TypicallyUniqueOfficial]

@MICROSOFT HQ they matched Sage, who's still an amateur, up with one of the best strikers in the world. Absolutely absurd match up, and the kid gets K.O.'d in one punch that left him with 18 fractures to his face.

[@yourthebest7942]

C Black nasty KO too

[@yourthebest7942]

TypicallyUnique it was a nasty punch and multiple fractures. But not 18. Settle down.

[@shawnspawn2502]

It's a good place for him to grow his career. If he comes back to the UFC he'll be showing up with like 30 wins or some s***

[@rollinraulston1582]

He will be back

[@curtflirt2]

I wish they could NOT PICK UP DANA WHITE AGAIN

[@RubenLopez-fk7xd]

sage is just never gonna be the type to bad mouth an opponent and that doesn’t make revenue in the ufc, he’s better off somewhere else we’re being a trash talker or being able to talk back isn’t a must in order to go foward

[@damendred1]

I got 3 letters for you. G S P. There's also wonderboy, Korean Zombie. Not everyone needs to go the McGregor route and talk shit to be popular.

[@danielojarbath8897]

SAGE was never my friend - Dana White

[@sefrzan]

Didn't wanna see him get damaged too early, wants him to get more experience fighting lower level folks

[@dixoncider4684]

Exactly right. Sage can really explode and pull off some crazy stylish technical moves against some less refined competition. He will probably be more comfortable fighting guys at 170 as well. He's gonna get paid more there than the UFC can justify paying him too. He'll get some refinement to his game and come back to the UFC.

[@FitnessGeekz]

Exactly and if sage can work on his marketability he will make money out of the ufc with sponsors acting or modeling

[@curtflirt2]

@@FitnessGeekz If I was him, I wouldn't even come back to the UFC.

[@Kaiyen2314]

ahh.. lower level? Okay.

[@kaneryan123]

I have no proof of this, just a theory, I feel like his contract wasn't renewed because Dana knows MMA is a violent sport where bad things can happen, and likes Sage as a person so much that it wouldn't sit right with him if Sage got hurt in his company. Just a theory. I could be completely wrong

[@optimuscrime608]

100% wrong. If you know anything about Dana white you know this

What’s the difference between mma and ufc

[@ashtonbrown8833]

MMA (mixed martial arts) is the name of the sport UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) is the main organization that hosts mma fights

[@supercash5891]

Northcutt would have been to polite for ufc video games . ufc wants sage northcutt to learn to cuss good , and act like a violent pos .

[@PurpleRain500]

Super Cash That’s the image. Just look at 98% of the clowns running around in the UFC today. Gone are the class-acts of yesteryear, and all we are left with are ghetto fabulous wanna be gangsters. And their mouths are FILTHY! I’m like my God there are small CHILDREN in the audience! But they couldn’t care less really. The company is getting bigger, but their clientele has been going down for years! Sage is the epitome of class and dignity. Such a good kid, his parents really raised him right. He’s probably better off away from all of that. God has better in store for him. I look forward to watching that young man grow.

[@supercash5891]

@@PurpleRain500, Dana White acts like he cut sage northcutt , gegard musashi, etc ... truth is they wanted away from Dana White ...

[@PurpleRain500]

Super Cash I totally agree with everything you said. He’s totally out to exploit these guys. He won’t even pay them right! Raging Al had to literally cuss him out to get him to give him his props and schedule worthy opponents for him! I just pray that one day very soon someone will swoop in and save this company, because it is such a great company and in my opinion the greatest sport EVER! I pray for someone who will treat ALL the fighters equally and not make biased, unfair exceptions that allow some to shine over others.
