VIDEO: This is how the UFC’s karate phenom Sage Northcutt became an absolute beast

How the f**k does Sage Northcutt get so ripped?

He's even had to come out and deny steroid allegations because of his ridiculous physique. Now the UFC has gone behind the scenes with Super Sage to find out how he went from karate kid to Dana White's next great hope for the organisation. Quite predictably his training is insane - and it has been ever since he started karate as a five-year-old. The lad was born to fight. He was going to compete in more than 30 karate and kickboxing tournaments a year and his dad Mark was getting him to do 500 sit-ups a day. Northcutt has been travelling the world since he was 12 fighting other kids - and just look at the shape he's in. We can't wait to see how his tep up to welterweight goes this weekend when he faces Bryan Barberena at UFC Fight Night Newark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK1Z0zVyf9o
