BJ did the same thing chuck did against rampage, he didn’t take his training seriously. The man was seen chilling in the tropics while GSP worked his butt off.

Hey Larry,
I am a big GSP fan as well as BJ, i agree the Vas had little to do with the outcome probably but the fact is it happened. There are little wrinkles in MMA still to be ironed out as it is still a relatively new sport.
People who claim he is a cheater really have not been paying close attention to his rise to the top.
It was unfortunate this happened but was dealt with swiftly and will not be an issue in the future.

OHHHHHHHH, that was the plan. Man these guys are so smart and so good at what they do. I had no idea lol, well then your plan worked. He got to fight off his back the whole fight! Well now that we all know this was the intention from the beginning I think we should all give BJ a High Five for being able to keep to his game plan and GSP not being able to stop him.

Man do people really believe this or what. At what point in Georges career has he ever shown the need to cheat, in any capacity! This is simply an attempt by BJ’s camp to try and justify the loss. Georges is a class act not a cheater or a whiner. Did he start saying **** after the Serra bull****e to make reasons for his loss. No he said he didn’t take it seriously enough and that’s why he lost. BJ stand up and say you were owned then get back on the horse and take it out the little guys in the lightweight division and leave the WW division to GSP, you do not belong there and never have. Anyone who thinks Georges or anyone in his corner, thought they needed to resort to cheating in order to defeat BJ is simply sticking their head in the sand and refusing to see the fight for what it was. Georges is the best pound for pound fighter in the world and if he were 250 lbs I have no doubt that he would own Fedor the same way he did BJ. Oh and let me say this, I am one of Fedor’s BIGGEST fans, as well as a huge ANderson Silva fan and I still believe Georges is the best in the world pound for pound. IMO of course.

At Saturday’s event they only allowed the official cut man to handle the Vaseline, but they kept in tact the rule that you could only have two guys in the Octagon for either fighter, so that limited each camp to one of their guys, and then the cut man in the Octagon between rounds.

Is anyone aware of new UFC regulations towards the use of Vaseline, i heard something was put in place recently. It may have been posted here earlier and i missed it, just curious what happened…cheers.

BJ Pen is highly know for his rubber guard and triangle defense attacks where evertime he attempts it, become sucessful and win…..If I knew this, which GSP and his cornermen obviously knew as well and wanted to prevent this…..Basically lube up the back of neck,shoulders and back and the rubber guard and triangle move become almost impossible…..BJ Penn is the best Rubber Guard,Triangle submission artist in MMA today. We all know that GSP walks around at 190lbs and lost droped to 175lbs to fight Penn who had to gain 20lbs from 155lbs to meet GSP. I mean C’mon,GSP is truly the more superior and stronger athlete, and was’nt that enough of an advantage??..Obviously not, Greg Jackson(GSP’s cornermen)applies extra vaseline to his fighters so that they can slip out of Submissions…but yes i do admit that Penn got owned…..but was he owned in a fair manner. Definitely, there should be a BJ vs GSP 3 to settle things fair and square. Hawai’i breeds the best fighters in the U.S. ……..ok shoots den! Aloooooooha!

I can’t believe some of what I’m reading. Do you people actually think that there was enough vaseline on his “Two” small locations to actually make a difference. BJ is just looking for anything to blame for his shameful performance and the fact that he has to eat all those words. “TO the death” “To the Death” I guess BJ must have just DIED in the octagon huh. Give me a break, go back down to lightweight and shut your hole and do your job. Yes BJ is a phenom but he’s just not the best out there. Swallow it and move on please. Have a look at the fight again and decide for yourself. There simply wasn’t enough vaseline on his “2″ fingers to make any kind of difference. BJ you were dominated like a red headed stepchild, it happens, get over it with your $200,000 or more you made and start to, and here’s the trick, “PREPARE” for your opponents for more than a couple weeks and “show” a little dedication, we all know you can talk a big game. And yes BJ Penn could kick my ass no problem.

I could watch either fighter against anyone and be happy, i just dont see the point of #3, if you take two equally gifted guys the only seperation here is the size and conditioning. The big guy will usually win 9 out of 10 times.
I want to see BJ at 155 where he is at his absolute best.
These guys careers usually come and go so quickly, GSP will fade before you know it too, so i would like to see them at their best while i can.
