Sage Northcutt gets first ONE Championship booking for May event in Singapore

Sage Northcutt has his first fight since his UFC departure scheduled.

Northcutt is booked to meet Cosmo Alexandre at a May 17 ONE Championship event in Singapore. Northcutt announced the news Tuesday at a ONE media event in Los Angeles, according to MMA Fighting.

The bout will take place in ONE’s welterweight division, meaning it will be contested at 185 pounds.

Northcutt signed with the UFC in late 2015 and compiled a record of 6-2. He is coming off a second-round TKO win over Zak Ottow at 170 pounds last July. The UFC did not re-sign him despite his three-fight winning streak, which also included decisions over Thibault Gouti and Michel Quinones.
