Top flyweight prospects Justin Scoggins, Ray Borg meet at UFC 196

Two of the best young flyweights in the world will meet on Super Bowl weekend.

Justin Scoggins faces Ray Borg at UFC 196 on Feb. 6 in Las Vegas, the UFC announced Thursday. Neither man is even 24 years old.

Scoggins (10-2), nicknamed "Tank," is coming off a unanimous decision win over Josh Sampo at UFC 187 last May. The karate specialist from South Carolina lost two in a row before that, but against top flyweights John Moraga and Dustin Ortiz. Scoggins, 23, has been a pro MMA fighter for less than four years.
