Cutting Losing Strength

Hi Everyone,
I guess I just want to pick some brains, I started on a cut and it's been going well so far, with the weight drop, but while trying to maintain my strength, the first of the big 3 that is suffering is my bench, did anyone else experience this?
My deadlift and squats are still strong, but my bench feels so weak...besides continuing to work it back up, is there anything else anyone else did differently? More accessory work? etc.
