Former UFC title contender Ray Borg announces retirement, then deletes post

Ray Borg was supposed to be part of the UFC’s August 1st card. But because of undisclosed reasons, he along with Eric Spicely and Timur Valiev were all pulled off from the event.

A week later, the UFC released the 27-year-old Borg from its roster. At the time, he was still optimistic to “be back” after numerous setbacks he’d gone through, both in his career and personal life.

On Thursday, Borg stated he was done with professional competition when he announced his retirement on Instagram. He ended up deleting the said post, but we’ve captured a screenshot of it.
