Man people are already trying to make excuses for BJ Penn. This whole vaseline grease up story is just plain BS.
One of GSP's cornermen had excess vaseline on his hands when he rubbed his back/chest so they are claiming GSP greases up for all his fights so people can't hold onto him.
Really?? Wow. Kinda wish now they'd let the fight continue another round. Penn just needs to suck it up and concentrate on not losing his title.... cause I think that's where he's headed.
well, the excuses are made by the huggersrs and hatters...not Penn himself... if Penn won, there'd be excuses for GSP too... its just how it (or mostly Sherdog) works.
