It’s no secret to say that Ray Borg has struggled to catch a break in MMA over the past year or so, but the former UFC flyweight title challenger has now said if he misses weight for a fight again, he will leave MMA forever.

Borg (11-4) recently missed weight for his UFC bantamweight debut against Casey Kenney last month. “The Tazmexican Devil” fell and hit his head on the bathtub whilst cutting weight for that fight, which resulted in him going to hospital.

The 25-year-old has previously missed the 125-pound mark on two separate occasions in the UFC before, and Borg had to pull out of three scheduled fights in 2018.

The point deduction may urge a heavier fighter to be more aggressive and get the finish/get finished, thus nullifying the punishment. It may be better to give the fighter who made weight a free IV to rehydrate. Maybe a little EPO.

If he's giving himself that ultimatum then he should probably move on to what he really wants to do.
