UFC 276 saw Maycee Barber defeat Jessica Eye in a final eye fight.
Maycee Barber extended her winning streak at UFC 276, notching a close victory over Jessica Eye, in what would end up being Eye’s last MMA fight. Barber and Eye spent most of the fight in snatching against the cage and while Eye managed to get Barber to the ground during the bout, it was Barber’s sloppy boxing skills and some outstanding elbows that gave her the unanimous decision victory.
While Barber won, her aggressive streak and bob are still nowhere near where they were before she tore her ACL. She is still a good fighter, but one has to wonder if she will fight so deeply in battles now, or if she can once again find her way to finish off opponents.
Jessica Eye calls it a career at UFC 276
The eye keeps away from UFC and MMA with a 15-11 record and only goes 5-10 over her last 15. Stomach problems made it difficult for her to not only do damage to the body but also caused her weight loss problems. Now thirty-five, going through a losing streak of four fights and losing bitterness, Eye chose to call it a career.
