Grease Gate 2, Ishida files complaint against Melendez

"Mitsuhiro Ishida's camp has filed a verbal protest to the California State Athletic Commission allegedly that Gilbert Melendez greased in Saturday's match on Showtime."

HT: Bloodyelbow and f4wonline.com

Update: Melendez responded to the allegations,

"I did not grease in the fight. The athletic commission was with me the whole time. I didn’t bring any grease with me. I didn’t think there was much grappling in the fight anyway. It’s kind of funny, but kind of weak. I beat him good and there’s no way I greased."
