still one of the greatest threads of all time TS!!!

enough with the vaseline controversy. time will tell if the NSAC gives a NC. if that happens we can all worry about it then. as for now bj hasn't spoken about it except to file for an investigation through his lawyer. he also said in an interview that gsp probably greased but it doesn't matter because he felt he should have been better than that and beaten gsp anyway. people say he has no class? they don't know what they are talking about.

let this all blow over and remember why bj is heralded as one of the greats. so he got beat by a specimen? that's like calling arlovski a bum after getting beat by fedor.

let's all agree that bj is the man. thanks in advance ;O)

it is easy to forget how big shit was at the time, i remember when chuck/tito 1 was pretty much viewed as "gonna be" the biggest fight ever, but now, its not looked at as anything necessarily special at all, just another fight that we all know and have seen 30 times

Though BJ had a horrible loss to GSP, it's true how much the last fight can damage his image overnight. People forget how dominating guys like Chuck and Hughes were, and only judge them by their recent misfortunes. BJ will be back, but needs to make his mark in the LW division.

Much as BJ's shit talk was annoying before the fight, he is getting way too much hate on these boards right now, some people are even trolling the boards on BJPenn.com, which is just stupid

As he told Gerbasi, “I don’t want to do the five fights a year thing for three years and then I’m done, like all these fighters have done. I want to do one to two fights a year for the next 10 years. I want to keep my name out there for the next 10 years.“
