Representatives for Mitsuhiro Ishida have accused Gilbert Melendez of "greasing" at Cyborg vs. Carano last Saturday.
Melendez, Strikeforce interim lightweight champ, took on Ishida in a rematch from a 2007 bout in which Melendez lost via decision. Melendez defeated Ishida by TKO in the third round.
Bill Douglas, Assistant Executive Officer of the California State Athletic Commission, on Monday informed MMAWeekly.com that Ishida’s camp issued a "verbal protest" about the alleged rule violation following the bout and was advised to file a formal appeal of the result.
According to Douglas, Ishida's camp has five days from the date of the bout to file the appeal. They had not done so at the time of publication.
Representatives for Ishida's camp declined to comment on the situation.
Cesar Gracie, Melendez's manager, told MMAWeekly.com via text message that the allegations were "pure BS."
"(Ishida) couldn't get a takedown cause of grease but Gilbert could?" he wrote.
God dammit Penn, look at what you've started.
