Borg began his UFC tenure as a flyweight, falling to Demetrious Johnson via fifth-round submission in a title bout at UFC 216. He later transitioned to bantamweight but had numerous bouts fall through during the second portion of his Octagon tenure. He was released in 2020 following a split-decision loss to Ricky Simon but returned to the win column when he outpointed Jessie Arnett at UAE Warriors 20 on June 19.
Gibson, meanwhile, has won six of seven professional outings since parting ways with the UFC in 2015. His most recent appearance came at XMMA 3 in October, when he took a decision over former UFC flyweight title challenger John Dodson. “The Renegade” went 1-3 during a brief UFC stint from 2014 to 2015.
