As cuts continue to rain down from the offices of the UFC, one fighter shockingly squeaked through to free agency. The young and “marketable” Sage Northcutt will not re-sign with the UFC. For at least the immediate future.
UFC president Dana White cleared the air on the status of Northcutt’s employment Monday during an episode of UFC Unfiltered (The official podcast of the promotion). While making an appearance on the episode, White stated that Northcutt will no longer appear on the promotion’s roster. White also asserted the UFC still had interest in Northcutt but at this moment, the organization would rather watch his development than be active in it.
