Jessica Eye hospitalized, Cynthia Calvillo in against Andrea Lee at UFC Vegas 42

Jessica Eye has been forced to withdraw from her fight against Andrea Lee at UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Rodriguez after being hospitalized recently for an unidentified illness.

The perennial flyweight contender took to social media on Monday night and revealed that she was admitted to the hospital for what she believed was an allergic reaction to fish eggs. Eye wrote she felt better after being treated that night but was taken back to the hospital once she developed severe symptoms such as fever, body aches and profuse sweating.

A diagnosis has not been made yet, but Eye explained that she would be kept under observation for a few more days.
