    IT's a shame the biggest win of his career is being tainted a little with this nonsense. GSP has to be frustrated, i wonder if Greg Jackson is going to get smacked hard for this?? I hope not..
    IMO that trainer needs to be banned for 6 to 12 months. Put a stop to this sh*t right away.

    I just love how Matt Hughes has come out now with his statement that GSP felt greasy for their last fight (which, of course, Hughes lost badly) but not their first (which, of course, Hughes won).

    That guy was a great champ. It's unfortunate that his mouth is now turning him into one of mma's biggest jokes.

    Hughes also said "He was bored during the Fitch and GSP fight so he left early", he takes little jabs at GSP now and then, likely because he is now the man at 170, and Hughes is no longer relevant. He needs to beat Serra and retire already..

    Greg Jackson or Phil Nurse?? If someone gets slapped i would put my money on Nurse, since Jackson has such a great rep. We'll see though, people are still talking about this, so the NSAC may feel compelled to make an example..

    I have to say it - it would have been better if Matt Hamill had been the one accused.

    And thats pretty sorry of Hughes....either accuse somebody of something when it happens or STFU and don't complain later.

    I have always defended Hughes and he is without question a hall of famer but that's simply garbage. I hate it when athletes complain so far after something happened.

    Hughes would have come off far better had he simply said, "I have no comment" and not defend GSP.

    I don't see the problem. Maybe, at the time, he didn't want to draw negative attention to MMA. Since everything was already out in the open, why not add in what you know/witnessed?

    I guess I don't see the point..either you do something about it or you don't. Whats the point of waiting if its a problem?

    If you don't say anything bad about it when it happens to protect something...why do something at all especially when the problem has reached a attention point that surpasses his fight 100 times over ?

    As a huge fan of Hughes....I just don't like this at all.

    if it was directly after, people might think he's making excuses.

    people also find it easier to come forward after someone else speaks up. I know it's a bad analogy, but look at people who come forward about priests after the first person speaks up.

    I certainly see what you're saying, oligarchy. I simply don't agree.

    That's pretty much what he's doing now anyway - making an excuse.

    BJ's issue is that he's just not an effective fighter at 170. He's unstoppable at 155, though. GSP had him beat; it's too bad all of this is overshadowing what was otherwise a MMA clinic from GSP.

    Following a week of controversy after the Georges St. Pierre and B.J. Penn fight in which Vaseline was applied to the Canadian by one of his cornermen in between rounds, the UFC has ins uted new policies regarding cut men and how the corners are allowed to enter during the breaks in between rounds for this weekend's UFC Fight Night 17 show in Tampa, Fla.

    According to sources close to the situation, the UFC has now instructed that cornermen associated with the fighters will no longer be allowed to handle the Vaseline used in between rounds to treat and prevent cuts.

    The UFC will now provide one cut man for each corner for the fight. Only two people are allowed to enter the Octagon between rounds so if a cut man is necessary to apply Vaseline or work on a cut, one of the other cornermen working with the fighter must exit the cage to allow the cut man to work.

    This is all following the controversy surrounding St. Pierre cornerman, Phil Nurse, applying Vaseline to his fighter's face in between rounds and then moving his hands to the Canadian's chest and back to help with a breathing technique at UFC 94. Because his hands may have still had Vaseline left on them, Penn's camp was compelled to file a letter with the Nevada State Athletic Commission asking for an investigation into the matter.

    Though there has been no official word from the UFC if this ruling will be ins uted in other states or if Florida previously approved the matter, several MMAWeekly.com sources indicated that the new rules regarding Vaseline use have been presented as permanent.

    Stay tuned to MMAWeekly.com for more on this story as it develops.
