Full video footage of GSP Greasegate scandal inbetween rounds!

1) They shouldn't be allowed to ever corner again.

2) Still wouldn't have changed the outcome.

3) B.J. Penn is a *****, even with good reason, for making an official complaint about this. It's still a way to create the illusion of an excuse for his getting owned by GSP.

 

I don't know about this. I know GSP beat Penn fair and square - but having vaseline on one's neck and back is a huge advantage in MMA grappling.

 

What advantage is there?

 

the grip.... your opponent can't get a good grip without it slipping

 

Oh OK so it bother BJ from stopping GSP from passing his guard?

 

I haven't seen the fight :-(

 

Its everything against a jj guy like BJ. It nullifies the Rubber guard and the high guard. Watch the damn fight! everytime BJ tries the high guard he was slipping all though the second round. Hes probably thinking what the ****?..Alot of submissions are nullfied as well, gogolatas for one. BJ didnt complain, he didnt say **** he didnt utter a word during the fight. He took his beating like a man. It was his corner who did it post fight.

Imagine though, youre alot stronger and bigger as it is, dont use vaseline!!

 

Tuff post the BJ sliding legs gifs ..That was hilarious

 

theyre going crazy at Sherdog, this is hilarious and the funny thing is the corner guy was holding vaseline ready to slather more

The sweat had not yet dried when accusations began to fly against welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre after his lopsided victory against B.J. Penn in the UFC 94 main event on Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Not long after his win, St. Pierre and his corner, including trainer Greg Jackson, came under fire for allegedly using a “greasing” agent between rounds. Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer on Monday confirmed improprieties had occurred in the champion’s corner after the first and second rounds.

“After the first round, one of my inspectors came to me and told me he thought he saw one of the cornermen -- I believe it was Phil Nurse … after putting Vaseline on [St. Pierre’s] face, he saw him rub his shoulders, and it appeared as though he might not have wiped off his hands,” Kizer said. “After the second round, we observed Mr. Jackson putting Vaseline on Mr. St. Pierre’s face and then putting his hand on his back.”

At that point, Kizer attempted to get Jackson’s attention from outside the cage.

“I don’t think he heard me because of all the noise in the arena, so I immediately walked into the Octagon myself -- I’ve probably done that two other times in my career -- and told him to take his hand off Mr. St. Pierre’s back,” he said. “We took a towel and wiped off his back. After the third round, we went in again and made sure his back and shoulders were wiped off to ensure a level playing field.”

Kizer informed Penn’s camp of the situation after the bout ended. Penn’s manager and brother, J.D., told Sherdog.com on Sunday that the Hawaiian’s camp planned to file a complaint with the NSAC, but, as of Monday afternoon, Kizer had not heard from Penn’s representatives. Penn has 10 days to file.

Nevertheless, Kizer admonished Jackson and Nurse after the match.

“I told them I was disappointed and that they may have tainted Mr. St. Pierre’s victory,” he said. “I told them if it happens again, it will probably be the last time they work a corner in Nevada. Basically, they said, ‘Look, we’re sorry. We’re not trying to do anything. It was an accident.’ Whether it was intentional or not, I don’t know. It was improper.”
