Hahaha. The director of the Nevada State Athletic Commision states that he actually went into the ring and supervised the removal of any vaseline that may have transfered to the fighters shoulder when the trainers hands were placed there. This is the guy who's job is to ensure a fair fight. He saw a potential problem and went in to the ring and fixed it. End of story. The Penn nutswingers will look for whatever excuse they can to try to minimize the intense beat down that GSP put on there hero. If you are at all unclear after reading this post please watch the fight again then come post.
Keith Kizer, the executive director of the Nevada Athletic Commission.
"This doesn't necessarily take away his victory, but it takes away from his victory, and that's unfortunate," Kizer said, adding that he spoke with St. Pierre's camp immediately after the fight. "I told them unfortunately, because of their actions, they have probably tarnished St. Pierre's victory in the eyes of the fans."
It sure sounds like it was no big deal...LOL... Name another time this man had these same actions during any MMA fight in Nevada?
I have one question, the fight lasted 4 rounds so 20m. Why did Penn not say anything about this between rounds? he is an experiance fighter he sould have known right away!!! IMO he cant accept the fact that GSP is a better fighter, come on vaseline or not there is no way Penn would beat GSP we all seen it.
Kizer said he was informed Monday that Penn had complained during the fight that St. Pierre was slick.
