I like both fighters, but GSP clearly dominated.

Regardless he cheated. It kinda takes away the honorable win effect

you need to get all your info correct

bj didn't say anything yet.
bj's camp did after the fight
the nsac did during the fight

there was vaseline rubbed on the back of gsp, not very much from what i've seen. i know a little bit of vaseline goes a long way though.
gsp made bj look like a first year BJJ guy. i'm sure the vaseline had something to do with that.

bj's camp also withdrew their complaint, but might be going through with it.

so welcome to 3 days ago and next time research first.

oh and other fighters have said gsp felt greasy.




edit:
here is what matt hughes said about the greasing

i doubt it had any affect on the outcome of the fight, but it would be pretty fucked up if they take the win away from him for it.

true, but this time bj didn't say anything and even if he did. there is a damn good reason.
there are gifs showing gsp's corner rubbing vaseline on his back and neck, the nsac jumped in and kicked the vaseline jar out of the octagon and wiped off gsp's back. they didn't do a good job wiping it off, but they tried.

either way gsp cheated.
the mma rules need to be changed and they need to make sure stuff like this doesn't happen again.

i'm 100% sure it affected the fight, but gsp probably would have won anyway

wouldn't surprise me. There is always talk that guys are getting payed some serious coin to throw a fight. Remember. Some guys are in it for the money, some to let anger out, and some for shear passion. But theres always something crooked going on.
