The Sage Northcutt Express Is Derailed By CM Punk Destroyer Mickey Gall

UFC on Fox this week had a double header at the top of the bill. Paige VanZant Vs. Michelle Waterson and Sage Northcutt Vs. Mickey Gall. They both cut their teeth on Dana White: Lookin’ For A Fight, but it’s Northcutt that White has been backing to go far. But it looks as though he’s backing the wrong horse…

Gall was confident pre-match (but then when are fighers ever not?!). Here’s what he said:

“Pick your poison…I’m going to hurt him in either spot. If I hit him with some shots, he might go to sleep. If we go to the ground, I am levels above him there. Yeah, I think my stand up is better than his and my ground is better than his.”

“They called me a submission specialist, that’s Gracie jiu-jitsu,” said Gall after the fight. Then he picked out who he wanted to fight next… Dan Hardy.

“Dan Hardy said he wanted a marquee fight for his return fight.” the New Jersey boy said. “I want Hardy.”

And Gall was right to be cocky. He won. It was Sage Northcaught again!
