Actually it could very well turn the victory into a no contest. BJ's corner can argue that their whole strategy for winning was to pull guard and catch the wrestler in a sub, and the vaseline prevented this. Think about it: round 2 was exactly when GSP took over and started dominating. Since that's when the incident happened, they've got a solid case.

During a post-fight appearance on ESPN’s MMA Live St-Pierre explained that one of his trainers applied Vaseline to his face between the first and second rounds then rubbed his back with the same hand between the second and third rounds, accidentally applying some remaining Vaseline to his back. An NSAC official who witnessed the transfer had the Vaseline immediately wiped off with a towel.
Little is likely to come of the complaint as St-Pierre was already dominating Penn prior to the incident and the substance was immediately removed, ensuring that it had no effect on the bout’s outcome, however we’ll pass along more information on the situation when it becomes available
Makes more sense than GSP was purposely greased down with an entire jar of vaseline

Really to me it sounds like an error on a cornerman's part more than anything. It's not like he was dabbing a shit ton of vaseline on him, and fighters get rubbed between fights. They wiped him down too so it would have no effect, and like execute said they would have stopped it if they thought he was cheating.
well if they wiped it down...

Thank god this fight wasn't in California or the CSAC would've ruled it a NC, banned GSP for 5 years and cut off his cornerman's fingers.

Really the best way to sum it up is that you all need to get the fuck over it. BJ needs to stay at lightweight. I'm positive GSP would have not the slightest problem beating the shit out of him again, but that's not what the people making these claims want. They just want to tarnish an amazing showing by GSP.
GSP wins 9/10 times. BJ never needs to fight at anything but LW again. If he does I will NEVER EVER root for him again. GSP did look fucking amazing, i'm worried for Alves, if he doesn't catch GSP fast and stuff the TD then he is fFFUUUUUCKED

And you also can't tell me it was purposely applied and not just the mental error on a part of a cornerman. It wasn't a shitload of vaseline Hektik. He was wiped down several times after he was wiped down the first time.
at the beginning of the first round GSP does a similar thing with his two hands, one on chest and one behind on his back I'm not exactly sure what he was doing. Slight massaging to a sore area or something. Mental mistake by the cornerman, next conspiracy theory as to why BJ lost please.

A guy I know in Vegas said that it was a pretty big deal around there and that someone asked about it during the post fight interviews and nobody would answer.
You all are doing everything you can to take away the fact GSP dominated BJ and won. Like I said time and time again, it's what BJ Penn fans do. Any loss he's ever had or will have can be "justified" by finding an excuse and bringing it up continuously no matter how ignorant or inaccurate it is.
From BJ's trainer . . .

That's a pretty BS move by GSP. And yes, I said GSP. There's no way he didn't know that they were greasing him. You can't have someone rub vaseline on you without feeling it.
You have to punish GSP in this situation. If you only punish the cornerman, then GSP can pick some homeless guy to be his designated greaser and if he gets blackballed after the fight then no big deal, just find another homeless guy.

Personally, I'm not making excuses. BUT, it is still a BS thing to do, and if GSP was so much better that he didn't need the help, why do it at all?
It most likely wouldn't have made a difference, but it could have affected one sweep, or one sub, and that's all Penn would have needed in the beginning of the fight.
Everyone is saying it wouldn't make a difference. Well, if it wouldn't change anything, why risk it?

I'm a GSP fan, but he has been accused before. In fact, I saw a guy on SD on Friday who had claimed it before. Someone who was obviously 'in the know' with some backstage stuff. The argument 'GSP is a good guy and wouldn't do that' is ridiculous. None of us know him or his motives/thoughts.

I'm not sure if he was or wasn't aware about that vaseline thing (but i think he was) but i see the chance of them thinking about "Hey, if we can somewhat put a little quantity of vaseline on his shoulders he could be 2% more slippery", i'm sure they consider every single variable in a fight.
Said so, i repeat that vaseline didn't influence the fight and bj penn got demolished.
If you think that they cheated, and they risked getting it overturned, but it made no difference and gave no advantage to them, you're not only flat wrong, but retarded.

That "most likely" statement shows you are only a blind nuthugger, it clearly didn't.
I've had some muay thai fights in my life so i guess i know vaseline better than you , after you put it over someone's forehead what remains in yout hands isn't enough to grease someone's else forehead , you can imagine what that little amount can do to shoulders or back of an already sweat fighter.

This is my favorite part. Basically saying 'if we were going to cheat, we would have made it so obvious the nose bleed seats could see it. That's what smart cheaters do.'
“If we were trying to grease the back we’d be greasing up and down, we would make it count. We wouldn’t do a little tiny spot in the back
Durrr, Accident?
If it was an accident why did Penn's corner warn them to watch out for it since he's been suspected in the past?

Before you even respond just remember the only people whining about this are the BJ Penn fans like yourself.
I said it probably didn't affect the outcome, but nobody can know that for sure. Only WR followers can't understand that.

Then call for a rematch you idiotic prick see what happens, I bet gsp TKO's him late in the 2nd or at the end of the 3rd. That would make more sense than simply whining about something that's been completely blown out of proportion like it's going to change the outcome.

If that's what you have to tell yourself to justify the absolute destruction GSP handed him more power to you. He was beaten by a bigger, better fighter. His chubby ass doesn't belong at 170, he can move back to 155 and lose to Kenny Florian now. I'm sure there will be excuses for that one too.
"I was in the Octagon and they came in screaming: 'On his face! On his face!' I really didn't know what they were saying," Nurse said of NSAC inspectors. "I see it now."

The fighters of Greg Jackson’s team are no strangers to ritual inside the Octagon. First there’s the “Jackson nipple tweak,” a bizarre, if amusing, twist of the nipples his fighters often do before fighting, believed to prepare them for intense battle inside the Octagon. Now, there appears to be a new ritual in Jackson’s camp, and it’s the source of controversy following Georges St. Pierre’s rout of B.J. Penn at Saturday’s UFC 94.
St. Pierre’s cornermen, including Jackson, were at the center of a storm at UFC 94 after officials from the Nevada State Athletic Commission approached them during the fight to investigate allegations that they were applying Vasoline to St. Pierre in between rounds.
Jackson spoke to MMAWeekly.com on Sunday afternoon and said the misunderstanding arose after Phil Nurse, one of St. Pierre’s cornermen, executed a ritual taught by a member of St. Pierre’s team, a “witch doctor” named Steven Friend.
“So in between rounds, (Friend) had this little drill that you do – and Phil Nurse is the one who knows how to do it – he showed Phil, and this is what Georges wanted, so we did that,” Jackson said. “But this is why we were doing it. He rubbed your back and tapped your chest; I don’t know exactly how it works. But anyways, what that’s supposed to do is get your energy in line, or motivated or whatever. So in between rounds, we had Phil Nurse do that.”
Jackson said St. Pierre has worked with Friend for years, since the French Canadian began training at Jackson’s academy in Albuquerque, N.M. Jackson says Friend has also worked with Matt Hughes and Randy Couture in preparation for their fights. Friend was featured in the sixth season of “The Ultimate Fighter” as a guest of Hughes.
“The controversy came because Phil Nurse also was putting Vasoline on Georges’ eyebrows,” Jackson elaborated. “In between rounds, you always want to put on Vasoline on (a fighter’s face). So Phil Nurse put all the Vasoline on his face, so his hands might have had a miniscule amount left over from that, when he went around the side and rubbed a little point on his back, and tapped on his chest.
“At that point, somebody in the audience thought we were greasing George down, and ran over and told the commission that we were greasing his body down. The commission came in and said ‘you can’t grease him down,’ which didn’t work. They said ‘you’re putting Vasoline on his back,’ and Phil’s like, ‘oh, there might be a little on my fingers, but it wasn’t intentional at all, and of course they wiped it right off and it was gone, so it wasn’t a factor in the fight at all.”
Indeed, much of the fight played out with St. Pierre on top of Penn, doling out a vicious ground and pound attack. Jackson said after a little explaining, the commission realized what was going on.
“We told our side of the story, we said didn’t mean to put any grease anywhere,” he said. “If we were trying to grease the back we’d be greasing up and down, we would make it count. We wouldn’t do a little tiny spot in the back. The whole thing doesn’t make any sense, so they were fine with it once we gave our explanation. It wasn’t like we were taking gobs of Vasoline and slathering on his back. They didn’t understand the drill that the witch doctor was having us do, and so it looked that way. It didn’t effect the fight at all.”
At this point, no formal complaint has been filed with the NSAC. The popular trainer chalks the whole incident up to fan paranoia.
“The whole greasing thing is pretty ridiculous,” he said. “You can’t grease somebody up. You just couldn’t do it. They check your body before you get into the cage, there’s an inspector right there. In order for us to grease him up, it would be insane. There are cameras everywhere. We don’t cheat. We don’t need to cheat to win.”
Jackson said he wasn’t aware if St. Pierre’s ritual was related to the infamous “nipple tweak,” as the whole business was “out of his domain.” As long as it made his fighter feel better, he was all for it.
“If it works, we’re going to use it,” he said.
there you go

Like I said don't make dumbass excuses if you dont want anything to change. All it looks like is that you're bitching. It would make more sense to say it did (if it actually happened in the first place) affect the outcome of the fight. The way you all are going about it now you just like upset bitches.
super hot

GSP = Cheater
I said it 'most likely' didn't affect anything. Nobody knows, and it could have been the difference. GSP and his camp thought they needed to cheat to get an edge.

All you are doing is exactly what I've said; bitching. How'd you feel seeing your boy get dominated by GSP wig? Feel good? Remember that talk we had about the fight getting finished? Well guess who nailed it--yours truly.
What do you expect him to say? lol
