Green beer, corn beef and cabbage will give one an unfair advantage in wrestling......but I don't think it'll make one 'unnaturally' slippery........just unnaturally flatulent!

Dammit you got there before me!! disappointing ain't it!

Yes there are substances that you can take that will make you slippery,a lot of slimming 'aids' make you sweat excessively, I can't think of the name of it but I have known a couple of fighters use some stuff that made them more than slippery, it was disgusting but it's very obvious so you'd notice at the weigh in never mind the fight.

:D I've just been sat here giggling like a schoolgirl reading this thread.

Where is Penn now? I'M going to give him a kicking based on that performance!

Probably back in Hawaii beating up tourists in bars with his buddies.

ok, I didn't think it was possible.... but I just lost even more respect for Penn. He brought his mother to the NSAC hearing and she read a statement to the commission. Seriously.... he had his mother complain about this. How pathetic do you have to be as a man, much less a professional fighter to have your mommy come and complain about things after a completely one sided beating?

UFC 102: Battle of the Moms!

Seriously though, this has to be hurting the future of his career in MMA, should have made his statement and complaint after the fight, then let it go. Commission would have taken over and made their decision, all he is doing now is pissing everyone off. Fans, promoters, other fighters...

His mother's statement read as follows: "I think my son is cool." :)

I'm a big Simpsons fan and for some reason I have this image of Penn as Millhouse who walks around saying; "My mum says I'm cool."

Wow... he brought in his mom. I really don't know how that can help his status as an adult male, much less as a UFC titleholder. I want to make some kind of smart-*** joke about it, but this is pretty much a huge step into thing we might pool as "pathetic".

If the goal was to bring in an MMA promoter to support his complaint, couldn't he have gone with someone who wasn't his relative?

He may as well have ran out of the octagon after the fight screaming, "I'm telling!!!"
