Sage Northcutt Overcomes Battle With MRSA Virus

Sage Northcutt isn’t really having all that great of a 2016.

Northcutt, who suffered his first career loss to Bryan Barberena back in January, was forced to the hospital recently after coming down with the MRSA virus.

Northcutt (7-1) is set to return at UFC 200 against Enrique Marin. “Super” Sage did update everyone, saying he’ll be back training “in a week” after recovering.
