BJ Penn's first interview since UFC 94 turned out to be very interesting. He talked about just about everything you'd want him to. The most shocking moment was when Penn revealed it was Kenny Florian who told his camp prior to the fight about Georges St-Pierre greasing. I didn't see that one coming at all.
Here are the highlights from the rest of the interview...
-Angry at the commission for not informing his corner during the fight about the greasing. "Why didn't they tell us during the fight to make a decision on how to continue the fight?"
-Did he feel slippery? "I did feel, Mayhem actually stated that, you can't grab the back of GSP's head. You can't hold the back of GSP's head."
-Was in touch with Eddie Bravo prior to the fight about using the rubber guard.
-"Greg Jackson probably has a scientific way to grease. I'm not a professional greaser. I don't know how to do all that stuff."
-"We're the fighters who gotta enter the ring. We're the ones who are gonna get hurt. All we're trying to do is make sure it's fair. We deserve that much."
-"If Georges is found out to be guilty, I lose respect after that."
-"I'd love the rematch. I'll fight him immediately. I'll take an immediate rematch with Georges."
-"I'm glad I could be the guy to take a thousand punches to make that rule."
-Currently in negotiations to fight Kenny Florian.
-"I wouldn't mind watching Machida knock Rashad Evans the f' out."
