|  According to Nogueira's Trainer "Sylvia Cheated"

Alvez made the claim during his interview that “the Americans” were using baby cream which would not become slippery until it came in contact with sweat.
Noguiera pulled out what has become his trademark style in that he lost the first several minutes of his UFC 81 Interim Title match en route to an impressive finish by guillotine choke mid-way through the third round. This fight displayed not only Nogueira’s toughness but also Tim Sylvia’s skill in that he dominated the early goings of the fight.
If his claims are valid it will be interesting to see what course of action the UFC will take to punish this sort of behavior, or to prevent this sort of foul from being committed in the future. | take it for what it's worth. just thought it was interesting.

Nog had to do something bc he was gettin whooped so he had to hook the glove in order to get Sylvia down it might not be clean but he got the job done nice.

Tim Sylvia's been cheating his head out of a decent haircut for his entire career. That's all I know.

why complain the other guy cheated if your guy won the fight? this is just lame.
