Sage Northcutt's dad refutes claims of poor coaching advice

Sage Northcutt's dad, Mark Northcutt, recently fired back at Ilya Grad's comments about him being the 'worst coach' he's ever seen.

Last week, Israeli Muay Thai champion and sparring partner of Sage Northcutt, Ilya Grad, made a post on social media claiming that Northcutt's dad is the worst MMA coach he's ever seen.

@supersagenorthcutt came in for sparring today preparing for UFC 200. I want to say something nice because he's a great kid but oh my what a disaster it was. His dad is probably the worst coach I've seen in my life.
