My rabbit has weird face marks and is slow. Is it a fight or illness?

Hi my rabbit has weird markings on nose/face. We have no idea what happened and we’re just concerned because he’s not acting like his normal self ? Not sure if him and the other rabbit got into a fight or if it’s a actual medical concern.

This looks like it could be from a fight. If Jack is acting super slow, that tells me he is in pain. He should see a vet now. Please take him into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
