Everybody is calling for a rematch between St Pierre and Penn...
Everybody is calling for a rematch between St Pierre and Penn...
There needs to be a rematch! GSP cheated! BJ Penn is GOD! Nobody can beat BJ Penn if he is in shape! BJ PENN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Arrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!11
People keep saying that they can't wait for GSP/Penn III. "I can't wait for the rematch!" they say.
Wasn't everybody already "can't waiting" for GSP/BJ II? What happened? The truth of the matter is, barring a Matt Serra shocking punch, GSP/BJ III will be a lot like Tito/Ken III, a COMPLETE waste of time.
And while I'm all for GSP messing up BJ while wearing a rash-guard, there are too many other title fights for both guys, GSP at 170 and BJ at 155, for me to want to see both GSP and BJ waste another 4-5 months training for a fight that makes little to no sense.
Both guys should move forward. Let the commission look at the whole "greasing" incident and punish the corner if need be. Hell, punish St. Pierre, fine him $10,000, send a message, fix the rules, only allow licensed officials who work for neither fighter to apply Vaseline between rounds, and make sure this never happens again.
As fans, we need to let this go. We need to let BJ fight at 155 and try and prove he is the best 155lb fighter in the world. And let GSP continue to try and dominate at 170.
Nobody is going to deny that a trace amount of Vaseline made it to GSP's back, but the majority of us don't think GSP, or his corner, cheated. A mistake was made, and steps need to be taken to make sure this kind of mistake doesn't happen again. Penn fans, let it go. BJ got smoked, he's not a 170lb fighter. He's a 155er. Encourage him to go to 155 and dominate, stop making excuses for him, he's a big boy, he's going to be all right.
All that being said, if a rematch does happen, I hope they do allow GSP to wear a rashguard, although, I'm sure that Penn fans would claim that BJ is allergic to the material and therefore couldn't breath properly, causing him to lose strength in his legs, which is why his legs were slipping in the fight, and therefore, because GSP knows a lot of Doctors, and got ahold of BJ Penn's medical records in order to find out if Penn had any allergies to any materials that could be used in the creation of a rashguard, GSP is a dirty cheater.

GIVE ME YOUR MYSPACE MAPLESLAP!
GIVE ME YOUR MYSPACE MAPLESLAP!
The forums on BJPENN.com are full of delusional nuthuggers, that's to be expected, but these guys continually talk trash about everybody who isn't BJ Penn and then tell everybody that they should respect BJ Penn because he is a warrior who gets in the cage and fights.
They of course say this after calling every other fighter on the planet a douchebag loser who doesn't have the heart, skill, or courage that BJ has.
If you do give them the treatment they are giving your fighter(s), they resort to this type of response, "Oh yeah, I bet you wouldn't say that to BJ's face!" As if they would say what they are saying about GSP (or anybody else) to their faces.
Or they say, ""You wouldn't step in the cage with BJ!" No shit, most sports fans don't have the abilities that the sports stars they talk about do, that doesn't mean they should hold their tongues. Anybody on BJPenn.com who says they would step in the cage with Andy Wang, let alone GSP, are liars.
Another one of my favorites is this one, "Just remember brah, BJ Penn has a lot more friends than you!" Really? A rich kid from Hilo who happens to be a professional fighter in the largest MMA organization on the planet has more friends than me? No way. I don't believe it. Then I realize that the people posting are making a threat. And I laugh even more, BJ Penn is going to track somebodies IP address and send his friends to their house to kick their ass because of something they wrote on the internet??? Is BJ Penn auditioning for Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Part 2?
Just a couple more, one of my favorites of all-times, "Yeah brah, why don't you fly out here and see how tough you talk when you have me in your face, brah!?!?!" Seriously, and this isn't a shot at the BJ Penn forums, just forums in general, if you're that pissed off that you want to confront them face-to-face, shouldn't you be the one offering to fly to their location?
This rant was brought on by the below picture and post. I blacked out everything as I don't want to be a dick, and I also don't want this BJPenn.com forum member to ask me for my Myspace. But really? Asking for somebodies Myspace? I guess that's what goes on nowadays, but really? Myspace?
I hope this hasn't offended anybody, if it did, I certainly didn't mean to hurt your feelings, but come on.
P.S. it's "you're an idiot", not "your an idiot"

Here's my response:GSP AND HIS TEAM SECRET CHEAT FOOTAGE!!! WATCH!!
You can see there is some sort of lube substance on GSP's Conerman left hand located on the lower thumb section. He is applying the substance to GSP's head/neck and upper torso. There are skeptics that say GSP did not know about this and should be the fault of the cornermans. That is a lie. There is evidence that show GSP's acknowledgment and participation in the scheme.(((( Watch carefully as GSP is dousing him self with the water, as he takes a sip.))))) GSP is purposely aiding the lube substance to enhance the effect of the lube and consistency. Watch the other two conermen, they all look aware what is going on, this is a team operation and was obviously planned.Now look at GSP's conerman, he seems to be massaging GSP. He looks to be doing some sort of Yoga breathing contractions, by applying his hand around his upper shoulders, neck, arms and back. But what looks suspicious is the way he is moving his hands. He is moving it in a way that indicates that he is rubbing some sort of substance on GSP. The other conerman behind the cage seems to be scanning the area and it shows that he pre-acknowledgment of what is going on. Also his conerman has some sort of shiny substance on his left lower thumb area.
You can see some of the officials concerned with GSP's corner. The offcials suspect some form of foul play (right before the start of the next bout). They detect some sort of greasing scheme was being implemented. He does a quick swipe of GSP with a towel. Couple things to remember.Vaeline our a strong lube substance is hard to remove with just a quick swipe of a towel. The result of this would actually cause the lube substance to be smeared around. Also vaseline soaks up into the skin, and can be activated with sweat, that and reapplying the substance during bouts, it will be pretty darn impossible to wipe off.
This is not the only incident were a fighter accused GSP and his fellow teammates of this type of tricky tactics.
SECRET CHEAT FOOTAGE!!!!!!!!!!1
SO SECRET THAT THEY DID IT WITH THE NSAC STANDING RIGHT BEHIND THEM AS PER REGULATIONS AND WITH 10-15 HD CAMERAS FOCUSED ON THEM!!!!!1
HOW DID THIS "SECRET" FOOTAGE GET INTO THE HANDS OF THE MEDIA???? DID SOMEBODY AT TEAM JACKSON HAND OVER THESE SECRET TAPES TO THE LOCAL NEWS STATIONS BECAUSE GSP DRANK FROM THE INFORMANTS KOOL-AID MUG ONE TOO MANY TIMES??????
ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS MUST BE ANSWERED... BUT FOR NOW, GEORGES, THE SECRET IS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
