Sage Northcutt lets fans know what to look forward to in ONE Championship’s arrival in US

Sage Northcutt hyped up ONE Championship’s impending US arrival during an online fan interaction on Reddit.

Reddit, a popular social media platform, often hosts online events called Ask Me Anything (AMA). Fans are allowed to ask their favorite celebrities and athletes questions and quickly receive a response. Ahead of his upcoming fight on May 5, Northcutt participated in an AMA session, and fans stormed the thread with questions.

One fan asked if altitude would be a factor at ONE Fight Night 10 on Prime Video and followed up by wondering how Northcutt would describe ONE to new fans. ‘Super’ responded:

“I think it can be if you're prepared for it! One has a huge roster of so many talented world champs! One also gives you a warning for stalling and takes away pay so they have a higher finishing rate than any other league”

Another wondered how Sage Northcutt compares ONE Championship to the UFC. He had this to say:

“I think One is super unique with MMA, Muay Thai, Kickboxing and Submission Grappling! They have very diverse talented athletes”

Northcutt made his ONE debut in May 2019 with a record of 11-2. The rising superstar was matched up against Muay Thai specialist Cosmo Alexandre, which didn’t go as planned.

Alexandre secured a first-round knockout, leading to several facial fractures for ‘Super’ Sage. Since then, the American has been sidelined with health issues from the knockout and COVID-19.

Northcutt could get back on track when he takes on Ahmed Mujtaba on his return to the Circle.

Sage Northcutt is ‘super excited’ for ONE Fight Night 10

On May 5, Sage Northcutt returns to the Circle at ONE Fight Night 10, the promotion’s first fight card on U.S. soil.

The event at the 1stBank Center in Colorado is already sold out, and the anticipation is growing. During an interview with The MMA Superfan, Northcutt had this to say about his excitement:

“Oh yeah, I’m super excited for it. You know, first US fight for ONE Championship, so I think having American athletes is also awesome. I’m super excited to be on the first US card, and it’s pretty cool that it’s in Colorado, so I’m looking forward to it.”

Sage Northcutt will take on Ahmed Mujtaba, who's coming off back-to-back first-round finishes.

Although ‘Super’ Sage plans to get back on track, Mujtaba will hope to capitalize on the opportunity and emerge victorious. ONE Fight Night 10 can be seen live and for free by North American Prime Video subscribers.
