Meanwhile, Eye was previously a bantamweight and struggled with injuries en route to a 1-5-0 at 135 pounds. However, since dropping down to 125 pounds in January, she has two decision wins under her belt.

The division just needs a little bit more time to work itself out. I Don’t care what my ranking is if I’m winning fights then I am number one in my mind. https://t.co/0ubxqzZny1
