Am I the only one who noticed how Sean didn't have his Vaseline applied correctly before entering the cage?
The Vaseline wasn't placed under both of his eyes at all, which resulted in at least 2 bad cuts to the lower right and left of his eye in this image.
Two different cut men applied Vaseline prefight, but the difference in quality and effort was shocking. I could tell immediately that Sean was going to sustain a bad cut at some point. Stuff like this changes the results of fights, and I believe it's getting majorly overlooked at the moment. If this happened in reverse DDP would've been gushing blood from those jabs very early in the fight. I'm not saying there wasn't a headbutt either, I'm saying that damage under his eye could've easily been mitigated or stopped all together, changing the optics of the fight dramatically.
This is something that needs to be observed moving forward. Incompetence or suspicious behavior? Rewatch it yourself, you be the judge....
