No idea if getting your prosthesis poked into the back of your eyesocket is painful or not. What if Shara wants to take the full five minutes? Are we good with that?

What if Shara's opponent gets temporarily blinded in one eye by blood from a cut but can still see just fine out of the other eye? Look, from a fighter safety standpoint, I want everybody to leave the cage with at least as many working eyes as they entered with. But giving Shara a win by "TKO - doctor's stoppage (cut)" in this scenario feels pretty unfair.
 
  1. Eye gouging of any kind;

    a. Eye gouging by means of fingers, chin, or elbow is illegal. Legal strikes or punches that

    contact the fighter's eye socket are not eye gouging and shall be considered legal attacks.

  1. Intentionally placing a finger into any orifice, or into any cut or laceration of your Opponent; a. A fighter may not place their fingers into an open laceration in an attempt to enlarge the cut. A fighter may not place their fingers into an opponent's, nose, ears, mouth, or any body cavity.

It would be a foul by either of these definitions.
 
It's not a prosthetic.
Wow, you're right. I thought he had one but he apparently hasn't gotten around to it yet. His appearance would probably look 50% more normal if he got one.

 
I still don't understand why this neaderthal is allowed to fight....Bisping wants to know too
