A recovering Eye said that she plans on returning to the gym this Monday, while a full recovery from the surgery is expected to take around four weeks. Eye is looking to build herself back up to another shot at the UFC Women’s Flyweight Title, as Eye previously lost to current champion Valentina Shevchenko at UFC 238.
