Jessica Eye Issues Statement On Weigh-In Miss
One headliner in Eye missed weight for the bout by 0.25 pounds and the fighter has taken to Instagram to explain why she came in overweight (via MMA Fighting):
“It was freezing in the APEX, and I was cold. I have no body fat on me right now, especially after the cut. I apologize for the 0.2 pounds. I’m even mind-blown. I should have peed before I got on the scale, so thank you everyone. I can’t wait to perform tomorrow.”
This is the second time in a row that Eye has missed weight for a bout, as she came in overweight for a fight against Viviane Araujo at UFC 245.
UFC Fight Night: Eye vs. Calvillo takes place tonight from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada with Jessica Eye and Cynthia Calvillo headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, which airs live on ESPN.
