For the second time this year, Ray Borg has been removed from a scheduled fight.
MMA Fighting confirmed with sources that Borg will no longer be competing in a bantamweight bout at Saturday’s UFC Vegas 5 event at UFC APEX in Las Vegas against Nathan Maness. After withdrawing for undisclosed reasons, Borg has been replaced by UFC newcomer Johnny Munoz (10-0). Munoz now faces Maness in a featherweight bout.
The change was first reported by MMA Junkie.
Borg has withdrawn from several UFC fights in his six-year run with the promotion, most recently missing a fight with Merab Dvalishvili at UFC on ESPN 10 in June due to personal reasons.
