Lightweight dynamo Sage Northcutt won't rule out move to UFC welterweight division

Up-and-coming lightweight dynamo Sage Northcutt put the 155-pound division on notice following impressive back-to-back performances over Francisco Trevino and Cody Pfister. And pretty soon, he may be doing it to the welterweight division, as well.

The 19-year-old phenom recently told Fighters Only that while he's comfortable at 155 pounds, he wouldn't be opposed to moving up in weight at some point down the road.

And he may not have a choice in the matter, as the youngster's body is still growing and may have a harder time making the cut down to lightweight in a few short years.
