Video: 19-year-old 'pretty boy' makes Dana White 'shut the hell up'

He may look like someone out of an Abercrombie & Fitch ad (Matt Serra's words, not mine) but Sage Northcutt can fight.

Something Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president Dana White learned the hard way, as the 19-year-old kickboxing phenom forced the brash head honcho to eat his words after dazzling him at Legacy Fighting Championship a few months back.

As you can see in the video embedded above, White and Co. were having some fun at Sage's expense, mocking the young fighter for his chiseled looks and tanned body.

Once the fight began, however, it was all business, as Northcutt put on a performance to remember, displaying kickboxing, wrestling, and jiu-jitsu en route to a first-round submission win -- putting the UFC head honcho on notice, in the process.
