Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship has become a topic of controversy. The sport is already criticized owing to its dangerous nature. It is now in the limelight following Friday’s bout at BKFC: KnuckleMania 3 between Austin Trout and Diego Sanchez. The fight took place at the Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The fight was one-sided as Sanchez seemed to be on the backfoot right from the get-go. Trout beat him up and won via doctor stoppage. Understandably gutted after the defeat, Sanchez threw some wild accusations at Trout post-fight.

Diego Sanchez showed a controversial clip

Diego Sanchez seemed agitated after losing the bare-knuckle fight. It was a still a bit surprising, though, when he accused Trout of cheating as he shared a clip of Vaseline being applied to Trout between rounds.

Sanchez wrote on the post, “This was in our fight last night in between rounds! No one was rubbing vasoline on my neck! When my strategy was to get to his neck, and throw uppercuts! I just came across this! First of all I didn’t get any Vaseline put on me! Secondly, I did feel that Vaseline all on his shoulder and his neck during the fight…”
