UFC welterweight champion Georges St Pierre says the campaign by lightweight champion BJ Penn to get the result of their UFC 94 fight thrown out are "ridiculous and going nowhere."Whether Penn's complaints are ridiculous is a matter of opinion, but St. Pierre is definitely correct that the complaints are going nowhere. The Nevada State Athletic Commission has no plans to take any action against St. Pierre or his cornermen, and the UFC is moving on. It's time for Penn to do the same."I'm not stressed at all about the Vaseline thing. I didn't even go to court (the Nevada commission hearing). I was in New York training and making myself a better fighter. I don't pay attention to this, it's ridiculous and it's going nowhere. And I just make fun of it."
St. Pierre suggested that Penn is the one with a problem -- "a problem of ego"
"It's a problem that he has. He knows it and I think he's so deep into it that he starts maybe to believe in it. A lot of people when they lie, when they get so deep into it, they start to believe in their lies. It's a disease."
"I'm not happy because I have never stolen in my life, never stolen. And he said in a way that I stole my win," he said.
"I don't think he is a good loser and he tried to take away credit for my win."
