UFC 245 weigh-in results: Jessica Eye misses weight by five pounds

LAS VEGAS – Onetime UFC flyweight title challenger Jessica Eye missed weight for her first fight since a brutal title loss, coming in five pounds over the non-title limit for a fight against Viviane Araujo at UFC 245.

After stripping off her clothes, Eye hit the scale at 131 pounds, or five more than the maximum 126 pounds she was allowed. With slightly more than 30 minutes until the end of the two-hour period allowed for official weigh-ins, she did not make a second attempt at making weight. As a result, she forfeited 30 percent of her show purse against Araujo.
