As a person, Dana White is not someone who takes excuses well. The UFC president is known for his respect for top fighters as well as disdain for fighters who can't seem to keep their promises.

Ray Borg has been one of the fighters in the limelight recently, as he missed weight at Flyweight yet again. This is the third time that he has missed weight at 125 pounds, while the fourth time he has missed weight overall. Heading into UFC Rio Rancho, he missed weight but the fight was accepted anyway.
