    They should make it happen ! I'd love to see Penn vs GSP for a third ****ing time because it seems like Penn will never admit that he's been totally ridiculed , he'll always find something to say for his defense...so why not ?

    Penn said that GSP was a quitter , then Penn abandonned the fight in the 4rth lol..

    Now there's this whole vaseline incident...it's tarnishing gsp's victory...so they should have a third one.

    Let's wait and see if there is actually anything to these claims. The St. Pierre camp has issued as statement and it seems pretty reasonable. Penn doesn't deserve a rematch solely on the basis that he "suspects" there was foul play. A losing fighter bitching about something after the fact isn't particularly uncommon.
    And as I've said before, does BJ really want to step back in the octagon with George. I highly doubt it. Getting absolutely pummeled in that fashion isn't something someone should have happen to them more than once in their career.

    It's not like the fight was competitive. Penn was getting dominated. Vaseline would not have change the outcome.

    Exactly.

    But that doesn't one bit detract from the fact that there should be NO TOLERANCE for vaseline in MMA.
