Eye should take part in a 125-pound battle (upper limit 126), but she weighed an impressive 131 pounds for a flyweight battle! As a result, Jessica was fined 30% of her purse by NSAC. Araujo accepted to meet her despite weigh-in miss, so the bout will take place tomorrow at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
This is Jessica’s second weigh-in miss in her career. She also missed the flyweight limit by 3.5 pounds for a match versus Carina Damm in 2013.
What are your thoughts on Jessica’s current weight? Maybe it’s time to cruise ten pounds north.
