The Highly Anticipated Battle at ONE 165
This Sunday, January 28, fight fans will witness one of the most stacked cards in ONE Championship history at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan. The event will feature two epic ONE world title clashes, but before that, a high-stakes lightweight clash between Texas native Sage Northcutt and Japanese MMA icon Shinya Aoki will take place, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats.
In an exclusive interview with The MMA Superfan, Northcutt expressed his excitement about competing with the former ONE lightweight champion on combat sports’ grandest stage. Having trained rigorously with a great team behind him, Northcutt is ready to face Aoki and give it his all.
Northcutt’s Journey to ONE 165
After a challenging promotional debut in 2019 and a series of injuries and illnesses, Sage Northcutt made a triumphant return in 2023 with a stunning 39-second heel hook submission victory over Ahmed Mujtaba at ONE Fight Night 10 in May. Now, looking to carry over the momentum into the new year, Northcutt aims to secure a win against the legendary Shinya Aoki, which could potentially put him in the spotlight as a lightweight title contender.
However, defeating Aoki is no easy task. Aoki is widely regarded as one of the most well-rounded and respected mixed martial artists in Japan. Will Northcutt rise to the occasion and claim the biggest win of his MMA career, or will ‘Tobikan Judan’ once again prove why he is a living legend in combat sports?
