Jessica Eye no longer has a bareknuckle boxing win on her resume.
A former UFC title challenger, Eye made her bareknuckle debut at BKFC 76 in June when she defeated Mariya Agapova by unanimous decision.
However, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), which regulated BKFC 76 held in Fort Worth, recently overturned the result to a no contest, according to an order obtained by MMA Junkie. The TDLR basis for the order states Eye “tested positive for a prohibited substance before a bout.” Eye was also fined $250.
The TDLR order does not state what specific substance Eye tested positive for and did not respond to MMA Junkie’s inquiries asking for further details. A representative for Eye declined comment when contacted by MMA Junkie.
The situation is not Eye’s first of the sort. In 2013, Eye had a unanimous decision win over Sarah Kaufman at UFC 166 zapped from her record for a failed marijuana test.
