Touted as a future star, the gloss somewhat came off of Northcutt following that unexpected defeat but the 20-year-old will be hoping to get his career back on track this summer. sagee The bout takes place at welterweight and will likely be one of the Fight Pass prelims on the card which currently looks like this.
