UFC 196 Update: Ray Borg to Meet Justin Scoggins on Feb. 6

A clash between flyweight prospects has been added to the UFC 196 bill, as Ray Borg will face Justin Scoggins in Las Vegas.

Promotion officials announced the matchup on Thursday evening. UFC 196 takes place on Feb. 6 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and is headlined by a heavyweight title rematch between Fabricio Werdum and Cain Velasquez.

The 22-year-old Borg has won three straight in the Octagon since dropping his short-notice debut to Dustin Ortiz at UFC on Fox 11. During that streak, the FIT-NHB representative has bested Geane Herrera, Chris Kelades and Shane Howell.
