'Grease Gate' update: NSAC to review UFC 94 main event controversy today

And Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) Executive Director, Keith Kizer, shares he pre-hearing thoughts with Sherdog.com on what could happen:

"The main thing here [for Tuesday’s hearing] is let’s see what happened in the fight and let’s find out what happened from Phil [Nurse] and Greg [Jackson], what happened and why it happened. Secondly, let’s figure out a way to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Now whether it goes beyond that is up to the commissioners -- and it may or may not.... What I see happening is something along these lines: a very strict warning to Phil, a warning to everybody that there’s no place for this, and maybe something [determined] along the lines that every corner can have one designated Vaseline guy and that guy can not touch the fighter anywhere else on his body, except for his face, until the end of the fight."

NSAC meets today (Tuesday, March 17) to review and discuss what happened between rounds during the UFC 94: "St. Pierre vs. Penn 2" main event between UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre and UFC Lightweight Champion BJ Penn. Kizer essentially throws water on the formal complaint that Penn and his legal team recently submitted, which requested that "Rush" be forced to take a shower, among other things, before his future fights. He says, in so many words, that it's not going to happen. In addition, don't expect to be the fight to be ruled a "No Contest." On the contrary, Kizer predicts perhaps a verbal reprimand of the cornermen and some ideas about how to ensure a "greasing" incident never happens again. For more background on "Grease Gate" click here. We'll pass along any and all information from today's NSAC hearing as soon as possible.

Can’t wait till this is over and BJ stops crying over spilled milk!

I as well cannot wait until this whole thing is over..IMO BJ is being a little baby about his loss..I don’t think the grease had an outcome on the fight, but I do think Penn had to complain to get the whole situation out there..

The fact is, alot of fighters grease, and im glad that someone is going to try and help the situation, so it never happens again…At first i agreed with what BJ was doing…All he was doing was letting people know and see what a grease/agent can/could do..I dont see any harm in that..

But to take it the next step and try to have GSP suspended, fined and have the ruling overthrown[no contest], IMO- that is all a bad move on BJ behalf..It just makes him look worse..I have always been a huge Penn fan, but over the last couple months, he has been getting less respect from me…

BJ- the UFC has already implimented rule changes to help this from happening..IMO- thats all BJ should have done about it..GSP[himself] is NO cheater, and the commission will not allow your resquests against GSP..And in the end you will look more like a baby…

He’s never going to stop crying…. Never.

Not that it matters, GSP’s career is going to have a smudge on it forever now. It’s like an unproven roids accusation, it’s always going to be there.

by Jas on Mar 17, 2009 10:04 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

his career will have no smudge, no asterics next to the W, and no question in the minds of whoever watched the fight that he was the better man on Jan 31…I don’t really feel as though BJ has done wrong filing to prevent further mistakes from happening in the future but I also feel as though it was just that…an honest mistake

by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 10:14 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree with you McArthur- I think BJ was completely in his right to file his grievances. Do I think he could have done it in a less mangina way? Absolutely! I’ll always be a fan of his but I’m not looking at him the same that’s for sure.

Very weel put McArthur I am probably the BIGGEST gsp fan in the world but I did’nt disagree with penn’s first allogations, but he took it to far trying to get the outcome overturned and get gsp suspended. I was never a penn fan but I respected him as a man and a fighter now I only respect him as a fighter…..only cause he could break my arms!! lol

What type of reception do you think BJ will get at his next fight? On the boards, he is not getting much love. I wonder if the entire fight community feels the same.

wont matter. Ken Flo will beat him and then he will finally Retire, thats the last we will see and hear from BJ Penn.

Finally this will be over soon and we can all move on with our lives. And it sounds like the recommendations are along the lines of what the UFC has already imposed in the wake of this mess. Good deal.

i have a feeling this will stupidly be going on for a while…at the beginning of all this i was on bj’s side cause i did not think it was right at all… but this is getting a little ridiculous now if anything just settle it in the cage again but i don’t think that is where bj can get his revenge so take it to the judge u malaho vagina!

by j-bone on Mar 17, 2009 9:05 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I’d be surprised if anything more than what was said above happens…a strong warning to Phil Nurse and some rule changes regarding who applies the vaseline to a fighter’s face.

I was never a huge BJ fan and thought he was his own #1 fan but this is a really sad day for BJ Penn…what a waste of time this whole thing has been. GSP completely destroyed Penn and made the little rich kid quit after calling GSP a quitter…that alone made the fight worthwhile. To see Penn basically unable to defend himself while GSP just rained down blows at will and to see the look of desperation on Penn’s face…that was classic. Then seeing Penn just laying on the edge of the cage completely defeated and then throwing in the towel…what a sight that was.

All I have to say after all of this…and I would have said it anyways cause I’m a huge Florian fan…is…

WAR FLORIAN!!!!

by Buster Bluth on Mar 17, 2009 9:07 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

As many of you know, I aint the type to be jumping on and off fighter bandwagons. I will always be a big BJ Penn fan,. and I still honestly believe that there isnt a man on earth that can F with him at 155 lbs….With that said, I do not support BJ in this greasegate incident. I just cant wait till it goes away and we dont have to hear about it again.

I will however say that mma needs to get the geasing problem under control. I read an interview with Big JOhn saying it has been a problem for years because the night before fighters take mineral baths, and then next day, as soon as they break a sweat, the grease comes flooding out of their pores. Mineral Baths are the problem, not vaseline!

FYi, regardless of what you think of BJ “the person”, it wont change the fact that he is going to sMASH Ken-flow!

true John BUT if its not in the rule books then its not against the rules

by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 10:15 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

well then the rule books need to be amended! MIneral Baths and Vaseline have the same exact effect. If you are going to ban one, then ban the other. All fighters should be forced to shower, backstage, 1 hour prior to their fights! Problem SOLVED!!!!

by john on Mar 17, 2009 10:50 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

fair enough…but you know as well as I do that no testing is full proof and that where there is a will there is a way….ie. certain foods that are ingested will cause someone to sweat…soon it won’t be what they are testing for, it’ll be what they are not testing for…

by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 10:54 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree 100%- with having all fighters shower 1hr before they fight..

by Stagger-Lee on Mar 17, 2009 10:56 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Thing is with mineral baths not only do they help you defend but they also give you ZERO chance of pulling off a sub yourself.

If you take a bath that makes you slippery = no triangle, neck cranks, omaplata, gogo etc.

Hard to believe that fighters would deny themselves those options.

The difference with greasing around the back and shoulders is that there is no downside for the greaser and therefore much worse.

by Nick J on Mar 17, 2009 10:57 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

not all fighters go for submissions Nick J!

I agree though about greasing on the back and around the neck!

It has been going on for so long because of the way the process works not because BJ is dragging it out. Let it run its course then we’ll be done with it. BJ will defend his belt and we can all move on.

by Boom Goes the Dynamite! on Mar 17, 2009 9:17 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The NSAC should consider giving the ‘grease man’ a unique look. Currently I believe they wear white or flesh colored gloves if any at all. Require the grease guy to wear bright red gloves so his hands are more easily seen. It would also be easier to see the gobs of vaseline on the gloves.

by A Lynch on Mar 17, 2009 9:22 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The UFC has already abolished the cornerman greaser…all vas applied before fights and in between rnds is applied by a neutral party

by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 10:29 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

And that is exactly where BJ should have stopped his battle..I don’t blame BJ for making all of this “greasing” known to the fans…I’m glad that “rule change” was implemented…But to go ahaead and try to overturn the ruling of the fight, is really making BJ look like a bitch..

Penn’s a joke! Concentrate on the LW belt you lazy bastard. He last defended it 10 months ago and’s not likely to defend it before september. That’s ridiculous, he should be stripped of the belt and have two people fight for it who are willing to defend more frequently than once every 18 months. Fat, lazy, no heart bum!

Im sorry im not a nuthugger. I was a fan of bj penn and still enjoy his fights, but i now hate him as a person. He can’t let a little incident go by and just has to keep causing an uproar. If the cornerman never greased gsp guess what would have happened? He wouldve still beat his ass down. Im sorry I dont agree with Bj at all and I think he should shut the fuck up and finally give florian his title.

by Jared on Mar 17, 2009 10:58 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

No way Bro. He would have used that rubber guard to apply a super good “submission of the night” for a sweet bonus. Not really. It seems you’ve lost a lot of your fans BJ, you f’d up. That will make living with your loss that much tougher, and I don’t feel any pity for you. I hope Kenny catches you, because he deserves it and he would be a classy champ. Just my two cents.

by DH on Mar 17, 2009 12:31 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I have to agree there. I was a big BJ fan, and still am as far as his fighting ability goes. However, as a person, the guy needs to grow up a little. Or a lot. He’d be a much better fighter if he learned from his mistakes instead of projecting his failures on other people.

LOL, he wants gsp to be forced to take a shower HAHA. are the people of the athletic commission gonna have to observe the shower and soap gsp up, LMAO. bj really is going far with this but i still think the fite should be ruled a no contest and won’t change that opinion. clearly gsp cheated and given that almost every other opponent he’s had in the past has claimed he’s greased is even more evident. his defense is similar to Sammy Sosa years ago when he got caught with a corked bat.

Im the biggest bj fan him and miguel torres were my fav. fighters, bj is an amazing fighter and loosing to gsp takes nothing away becouse gsp is to heavy for him thats what weight clases are for, but that being said he needs to stop been such a lil b***H about this and stop crying like he lost the fight simply becouse of that he was clearly being out matched from the begining, and him trying to delay GSP’s fight just pises me off He is losing a lot of hard core fans here and is comming of like a little cry baby, I think if he doesnt stop this even the Hawains are gonna stop liking him!!!!!!!!

by The Philicutioner on Mar 17, 2009 11:25 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

So let me get this straight – BJ lost to GSP and should have nothing to be ashamed of because GSP is in a larger weight class. That statement is a load of crap.

If that’s the case, then Blow Job or any other fighter shouldn’t jump weight classes. You change weight classes to compete, not to say “oh well, he was larger than me anyway”, but if you beat the guy you’re some kind of hero.

Those are the kind of words I would expect out of BJ’s mouth, but I guess the miniscul “greasing” was a better excuse for his failure.

ja434650…I see you on here defending (and then some) BJ all the time. What gives? He lost the fight (BADLY), he bitched like crazy, the NSAC isn’t in agreement with BJ (along with EVERYONE else), nothing is going to get overturned, BJ is less liked than ever before, etc., etc.
As BJ’s party-parade, you may want to start thinking that maybe YOU (and BJ) are the ones who are wrong. You’re like the crazy guy on the street corner shouting at everyone else that they’re crazy…but guess what…it’s really YOU who’s crazy.
IF BJ decides to defend his belt at anytime in the near future (10 months now!?!?), I MAY start to think more of him but not after the shenanigans he’s pulled as of late.

Yeah man. BJ brought this mess on himself. His grievance was all good in the beginning because it brought a serious issue to light. Then it went too far by trying to have the fight ruled no contest and having GSP punished, because this is for his benefit only. Everyone on here smells the shit and it stinks to high hell. GSP and his camp are the dudes who committed the error, but BJ fans are dropping like flies. What you’ve done to this point BJ is worse than what GSP and his camp did originally. We can forgive an accident but what your doing is premeditated and very, very unsavory. So many fighters with good character would die to have your natural talent. To me, you’re wasting your talent being the way you are.

How do you say, “Talk shit” in Portuguese?

by Jeff on Mar 17, 2009 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

First off, this is pretty much exactly what I expected the NSAC to say, for gods sake there own NSAC approved guy checked gsp before the fight and they had an NSAC guy right there, when they noticed a problem they tried to correct it right away. Seriously what else could they do? In there own rule books it states that an unarmed combatant can’t have excessive amount of grease on there face or body, from obvious observation the vas on gsp was miniscule. To say phil nurse was obviously trying to grease up gsp and cheat is nonsense, to do it in such and obvious way with so many camera’s on him, it seems much more likely that in was an over site. “Stich” the famous cutman accidently touched hughes shoulder and other fighters cornermen have touched the fighters bodies too. I believe under stress people sometimes do stupid things I know this personally to be true for myself under a lot of pressure.

How can anyone with eyes think it made penn lose the fight? That’s completely ridiculous penn got the shit kicked out of him and he is obviously a bad match up for the new gsp in a 5 round title fight. Penn who apparently says he lost the fight due to the highly slippery nature of gsp never attempted ONE sub attempt. Hughes is another guy who is a bad match up for gsp and the second most vocal about gsp being greasy. I also think the whole weight issue is bullshit. Gsp lost the first round badly in his first fight and he was still much bigger than penn there. Penn embarred hughes in his first fight with him how was weight an issue there? His fight with machida…weight issue? His fight with the gracies? Gsp is a better fighter than penn period who happens to be stronger than him too. Gsp has advanced a lot since his last fight with penn he went from a purple belt to a black belt in bjj and had a great game plan for penn and fought intelligently this time.

The odd thing is at time’s penn seems likeable but it’s almost impossible for me to like him the way he’s conducting himself and coming across as the biggest sore loser I have ever seen in MMA. His requests for punnishments for gsp and his camp are insane, it just shows how he thinks and what kind of people he has around him. I think he has some sort of god complex or something and the people around him support his deluded thinking. He tried to sue the UFC who striped him of his belt when he went to another organization and lost the case, like he will with this one. Penn, his family his camp are all odd balls who worship penn, phil nurse with his momentary brain fart, let penn get his foot in the door but if penn had any sense he should have just let it go and not said a peep. He’s probably lost half his fans by now, I never was one but any respect I had for him is gone.

Finally this is going to be behind us. I’m glad there is going to be no punishment otherwise a lot of fighters would be shown accidentally getting vasoline put on other parts of the body(including BJ) for GSPs defence, and GSP would look like the bad guy. Bring on their fights this is over with. There will be no excuses for any future fights now, the only positive that came out of this.

I think when he fights next and gets showered with BOO’S before the fight and then just brutalized with comments after the fight he will realize what he has done. I hope Kenny demolishes him, which is easier said than done.

LMAO!!!! MMAweekly just announced the results of the meeting, penn and his mommy were there!!!! ha ha ha ha!!. No surprise nothing is going to happen to gsp or his camp, HA HA!! in your face penn and his delusional fans!!! Penn asked why gsp wasn’t there…..why should he waste his time with this piece of shit, he’s on vacation and said he would let the NSAC handle it and it was in there hands, and they handled it accordingly.

Now you can guarantee penn will be saying the NSAC is corrupt and gsp is a coward for not showing up, mark my words. Penn just can’t let things go he seriously needs some psychological help, my finally thoughts are FUCK YOU BJ AND YOUR CLEARY RETARDED FAN BASE!!! :p

I did not see the weigh in but Im sure alot of the boo’s came from folks that watched the Prime Time Specials leading up to the fight, thats were I started losing respect for BJ.

I was just on bjpenn.com ripping into penn and one of the blogs there was “penn brings mommy” I laughed my ass off and put up several comments and all of a sudden the site is down temporarily LMAO!!!!! I’m surprised mania isn’t on to this as it was on mmaweekly for a while, I became a member of bjpenn.com march 11/09 ha ha and I bet I’ll be banned now but a least I got my 2 cents in. Some of the bloggers on there seem so dumb, are very assuming and don’t know the facts, anyway ha ha ha penn sucks. :)

U kno all u guys that are b*tching about bj crying remember one thing If Gsp and his corner did the right thing there wouldn’t be any place for bj to complain. LOOK AT Y THIS IS GOING ON NOT JUST THE ASPECT U WANT TO SEE IT FROM. SOMEHOW THE WRONG DOING HAS GOTTEN LOST IN ALL THIS

BS, BJ would always find a way to complain. If it wasn’t this, it would be something eles. Also BJ accused GSP of doing steroids and he lied about Kenny emailing him to warn him about GSP greasing. Sounds like BJ is trying to mess with Kenny’s chance to train with GSP. BJ is a peice of shit, plain and simple. There have been plenty of accidental greasing (much worse with gobs of vas left on the shoulders), the only reason you never heard about them is because no one but BJ WHINED about it. BJ is trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill.

You have been banned from BJPENN.COM

Sorry, nate, you can not access BJPENN.COM as you have been banned. If you think you’ve been banned in error, you can contact the administrator.

This is what happens if you speak your mind at baby jays website, I just posted a few times today and am banned already, I’m pretty sure the guy who posted “penn brings mommy” is banned already. Almost everything I said on the site was true and only a little trash talking, man this guys is protected, he’s the baby of the family I guess and there wealthy so don’t mess with baby jay.

Why am I not surprised, considering who’s site it is? With CBJ (Cry Baby Jay) it’s his way or he takes his toys and goes home,lol.

For any of you that have ever trained/fought “no gi” MMA jiu-jitsu, you cannot deny that if your opponent has any type of lubricant anywhere on his body beside his face(like his back or shoulders) that you will be at a disadvantage. However, my boy Penn, got owned in the stand-up game where many thought he had the advantage. His loss doesn’t merit an excuse, but it does benefit any other fighters whose opponents break the rules.
