UFC flyweight contenders Joseph Benavidez and Ray Borg were originally targeted to be part of what is expected to be a massive event at UFC 229. However, this matchup has been subsequently moved to a non-pay-per-view card at UFC Denver on November 10th.
According to officials, the sudden change had nothing to do with Conor McGregor, whose bus rampage at UFC 223 last April left Borg with broken glass shards in his eye. But according to Benavidez, a connection remains.
