Sage Northcutt to make ONE debut against Cosmo Alexandre in May

Coming off of three consecutive UFC wins, Northcutt’s first fight for his new promotion will take place against kickboxing specialist Cosmo Alexandre — also making his ONE debut — at an event in Singapore on May 17. Northcutt, 22, announced the news at a ONE media gathering in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The bout will be contested at welterweight, making it a 185-pound bout under ONE’s weight classifications.

Northcutt (11-2) was not re-signed by the UFC following his most recent appearance last July, a second-round knockout win over Zak Ottow at 170 pounds. He won six of his eight fights inside the Octagon.
