UFC Japan cutmen MIA

[Jason AG]

Was it just me or were the cutmen MIA a lot last night in between rounds when they should have been doing their jobs.. There seemed a lot of moments where fighters had banged up faces and there was no one there applying the cold steel bars to reduce swelling.. cuts got treated in a rush late into the 1 minute breaks if at all.. I was disappointed with cutman performance... Any of you guys notice this?

if the cutmen go into the cage, then only 1 cornermen can go in.
I'm not sure exactly how they work it but I would suspect that it is the corners decision on whether or not they want the cutman working on their guy

That's what happens when you send the B team.

ah is that how it works? learn something new every day! in that case i blame the corners for untreated fighters!! u only need 1 cornerman in there the others talk from right behind the fighter anyway..

Stitch was talking crap about not being used very much outside of the west coast.
He was calling them the A team and acting like there weren't any other decent cut men

Can't say I closely analyzed the performance of the cutmen.

Whoever did Stann's nose did an admirable job of patching him up between rounds; sucker was gushing like a geyser.

Absolutely noticed this last night. Fighters were bleeding/swelling and no one was treating them between rounds.

I noticed it seeing one fighter bleeding and seeing the cut man come in really late, fumble with a cotton swab and just as soon as it gets put on the fighters cut it was the end of the break. I didn't notice this problem last time they were in Japan, perhaps I'll revisit the video.
