Former UFC flyweight title challenger, Jessica Eye has confirmed her return to combat sports, revealing she has inked a multi-fight deal with the BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) ahead of a May 10. debut in Salt Lake City, Utah — against an opponent yet to be determined.
Eye, who saw her lengthy Octagon tenure come to an end back in 2022, has been sidelined from mixed martial arts competition since her unanimous decision loss to Maycee Barber in the summer of that year — which came as her fourth consecutive loss.
However, back in 2019, Eye took on current flyweight champion, Valentina Shevchenko — in an undisputed title fight, where she would suffer a hellacious second round high-kick knockout loss to the striking sensation.
