A women’s flyweight contest is set for the June 13 UFC Fight Night card as Jessica Eye will take on Cynthia Calvillo.
Eye returned to UFC 245 victorious over Viviane Araújo after failing to beat Valentina Shevchenko at UFC 238 for the UFC Women’s Flyweight title. Despite the devastating loss, the 31-year-old has won four out of her last five fights, also beating Jessica-Rose Clark (via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 132), and Katlyn Chookagian (via split decision at UFC 231). Eye’s professional record currently stands at 15 wins, 7 losses, and 1 no contest.
Calvillo is coming off a draw against Marina Rodriguez at UFC on ESPN 7; however, the flyweight is currently in the midst of a two-fight winning streak. Calvillo has beaten Poliana Botelho (via submission at UFC Fight Night 140) and Cortney Casey (via unanimous decision at UFC on ESPN 1). The 32-year-old has lost only one match inside of the octagon, which was against Carla Esparza at UFC 219. Calvillo’s professional record currently stands at 8 wins, 1 loss, and 1 no contest.
UFC Fight Night: Eye vs. Calvillo takes place on Saturday, June 13 from a location to be announced with the two flyweights headlining the event.
