BJ Penn Apologizes for Saying Georges St. Pierre Uses Steroids

agreed. he’s not sorry.

Surely someone who knows how public perception / the media operates would speak with more care if he did not want to offend or move the focus from Saturday night. Given his own marketing savvy, his last go ‘round with public perception in grease-gate and his refusal to work with some MMA media because of what he feels is unfavorable coverage, BJ knows what he’s up to.

No problem with answering questions genuinely – just don’t feign surprise and offer pseudo-apologies when the resulting coverage doesn’t suit you.

No idea why BJ does this stuff; he’s a legend and should crush Kenny as you predicted.

Great.

But all of that is irrelevant. BJ cast accusations with zero evidence. He tried to smear the name of the guy who humiliated him and nearly ended his career. It’s nothing but sour grapes, and is the reason why BJ Penn is a disgrace.

gps has been very patient with this whole ordeal, after the fitch fight penn got in gsp’s face and was all respectful, but come primetime he started showing his true colors, look what st peirre got for being a good sportman, he could have easily denied penn’s request and told him to go fight in his respectful weight class. there was no pressure on penn, it was st peirre belt on the line, now his livelihood is on the line, his comments arent even half painful and malicious as the things penn has said and done after 94. and the so called interviews where gsp is bashing penn, havent even got the kinda exposure some of the penn interview have. cmon man nobody here is playing favorite, im not a canadian nor a hawaiin, is it really so hard to have a rational perspective on this ?

BJ wanted to apologize for getting caught making unfounded accusations. It’s not an apology for being a douchebag and trying to discredit GSP. BJ is all about BJ.

yes and he went out of his way to asssociate gsp and sherk, saying his personal problems with them was b/c it was his “opinion” that they both use steroids. it’s a fact that sherk tested positive, so i don’t see how that’s an “opinion” it’s fact. he’s also been seen with sherk afterwards, all buddy,buddy like (of course after he won) so his " personal vendetta" didn’t last long. he also had a HUGE personal beef with jens, but didn’t mention him (he won that one too, surprise, surprise) , and yes he started out making his fight with kenny very personal, accusing him of tipping him off that gsp was greasing (a lie). he may not being doing this on purpose, but it almost sounded like he was accusung gsp again. pathetic.

gossip? he looks like shit too me, worse than before previous fights, bags under his eye’s, yawning during the post conference (yes i know it was boring) but it seems as though he may not be sleeping so well, worrying too much, perhaps? :-)
