Lesnar was tapping in pain but Mir refused to release the kneebar. We have seen many similar situations in the UFC, particularly with the attacking fighter verbally indicating to the referee that the defending fighter is tapping and refusing to release the submission until the referee steps in.
Regarding the alleged eyepokes: it's kind of silly to argue given that I don't understand Portuguese, but it seemed clear from the video that Palhares thinks he is innocent.
just because someone other than Palhares has done it in the UFC doesnt make it excusable. I'm really not gonna sit here and debate whether Palhares's actions are justified lol
