UFC finalizing Ray Borg vs. Merab Dvalishvili for June 13 lineup

A bantamweight matchup has been added to the UFC’s upcoming schedule.

The promotion is currently finalizing a fight between Ray Borg and Merab Dvalishvili for its June 13 event. The event is expected to be in Las Vegas, pending Nevada Athletic Commission approval at a meeting scheduled for this Monday.

Two people with knowledge of the situation informed MMA Junkie of the targeted booking Thursday. They asked to remain anonymous because the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.

Dvalishvili (10-4 MMA, 3-2 UFC) has won three straight fights after losing his first two with the promotion. The Georgian bantamweight’s most recent fight took place at UFC on ESPN+ 25 in February, when he defeated then-UFC-ranked Casey Kenney. Dvalishvili also holds wins over Brad Katona, Terrion Ware, Raufeon Stots and Tony Gravely.

Borg (13-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) competed May 30 at UFC on ESPN+ 29 in Jacksonville, Fla., and had his two-fight winning streak snapped by Ricky Simon. Prior to the loss, Borg won back-to-back fights against Rogerio Bontorin and Gabriel Silva.
