Felipe Silva calls out Sage Northcutt: 'If I can corner him, he'll be lost’

UFC lightweight Felipe Silva believes Sage Northcutt would have a great opportunity to show all the skill he was unable to show so far in his UFC career.

Felipe Silva had quite the UFC debut when he knocked out Shane Campbell early in the first round, at UFC on FOX 21. Eager to get back in the Octagon, the Brazilian wants a more recognizable name.

As he told Combate, he believes Sage Northcutt would match up really well with him.

"I watched an interview with Sage Northcutt right before he had his third UFC fight, where he said he wasn't able to show his striking yet, because he had only been matched up with grapplers so far.
