LAS VEGAS - Two months after UFC lightweight champion B.J. Penn's filing of an official complaint with the Nevada State Athletic Commission regarding Georges St. Pierre and his camp ��" and three-and-a-half months after the pair's UFC 94 bout ��" "Greasegate" is still without resolution.
The NSAC briefly addressed the situation as part of today's NSAC hearing at the Grant Sawyer State Office Building in Las Vegas.
Penn's attorney, Raffi Nahabedian, as well as "The Prodigy's" mother, Lorraine Shin, represented the lightweight champion at the meeting.
The meeting was the latest chapter in an ongoing saga surrounding Penn's allegations that St. Pierre had an unfair advantage in their Jan. 31 fight. Penn, whose fighting style heavily incorporates Brazilian jiu-jitsu and ground fighting, said he was at a disadvantage because of Vaseline that was inappropriately applied to St. Pierre's body between rounds of the fight.
NSAC chairman Bill Brady made it clear before proceedings began that little progress would be made.
"This is a non-action, informational item, and therefore no formal action can be taken by the commission regarding this item," Brady said.
