It’s been a difficult ride for Ray Borg as of late. Things don’t seem to be getting much better for the flyweight.

“The Tazmexican Devil” posted a photo on Twitter, showing his truck completely wrecked following an accident in Albuquerque. Borg added in the post, “People in Albuquerque can’t drive for sh*t”:

“I can’t remember the last time I caught a break. People in Albuquerque can’t drive for sh*t, thank god the kids are ok.”

Borg has been very public about his son’s recent medical issues, as the infant has already undergone several brain surgeries in his young life. Borg also had his fight with Brandon Moreno at UFC 223 canceled last year after he was injured during Conor McGregor’s bus incident in New York.

He has also had trouble making weight in the past several years, missing weight three times since 2015. His weight issues have gotten so trying, that Borg threatened to retire from mixed martial arts (MMA) if he misses weight once again.

Ray Borg has missed weight three times since joining the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), but “The Tazmexican Devil” has vowed it will never happen again.

Borg earned his UFC contract after tearing up the King of the Cage scene in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He quickly got his record to 6-0 and the big leagues came calling.

That was in 2014.

Borg is now a grizzled old veteran at the age of 25. But according to a post on his Twitter account on Wednesday (April 17, 2019), he plans on making some serious changes to his diet.

Borg went so far as to say if he misses weight just one more time, injury excluding, he will call it a career (h/t BJPenn.com):

In addition to missing weight three times in his UFC run, Borg has also been forced out of fights with Ian McCall at UFC 203 and Joseph Benavidez at UFC Fight Night 139 due to weight cut-related illness. The 25-year-old missed weight in his most recent bout against Casey Kenney at UFC on ESPN 2 despite moving up to 135 pounds.

What do you think? Will Ray Borg miss weight again? Or will he stave off an early retirement by finally ditching his issues?
