Sage Northcutt spoke with reporters following his welterweight win over Zak Ottow at UFC Fight Night 134. Highlights are below, per MMAjunkie:

On a possible move to middleweight: “Who knows? If you look at my brother, my brother’s like (6-foot-4), and he’s only 19 years old. So I hope I’m as tall as him. I might be 6-5. I could be 220, 230 pounds. I have no idea. My mom’s dad was 6-5. I could be fighting at 185 in the future. But first, 170.”

On training witrh Uriah Faber: “I’m at his gym all the time. I’m learning the sequences, the techniques, everything. Now, fighting at my natural weight and grow into that weight class, it will be even better.”
