Sage Northcutt revealed on Monday’s MMA Hour that he was dealing with strep throat leading up to his UFC on FOX 18 fight against Bryan Barberena. Northcutt lost the bout by submission. Dana White seemed to take some responsibility for the loss in a recent interview, saying “I blew it.”
“The kid was super sick and he still wanted to fight. His father said, ‘listen we still want to take the fight, we still want to take the fight,’” White said. “I should have pulled the kid from the fight. He’s 19 years old, he fought three times in [four] months. I should have pulled the kid from the fight.”
“The kid really wanted to fight and I let him fight. He was sick as hell,” White said. “I blew it.”
Northcutt discussed his strep throat earlier this week, saying: “Two days before my fight, I had a real bad relapse of the strep throat and I had to go to the emergency ready clinic.”
