    Schaub is such a *, his ego is way out of control, his stand up is * and his TV show is even worse.

    Nick Diaz is a * waster, if anyone has him in IG they’ll agree with me.

    If you think Brendan Schaubs ego is out of control, then * knows what you think about Dana.

    Be a huge test for him, tougher fight than Wonderboy for me.

    Love to see him do it, but I think Woodley would take him.

    Schaubs sound I think, don't see an ego problem with him at all tbh, I like Dana but he treats his fighters like * sometimes especially in the media.

    I followed him on sc about a year ago expecting to see him training etc. All he did was go to clubs, smoke weed and eat.

    Dana has a right to have a huge ego, Schaub is small time compared to Dana and he's right without Rogan Schaub would be small time.

    Dana would be nothing without the Fertitta’s. The guy is an idiot, he’s got no right to talk to or about the fighters the way he does. Brendan Schaub would have been just fine without Rogan, it just wouldn’t have been overnight success like what has happened.

    I can’t take to him at all he seems like a bit of a throbber tbh

    I do like Nate.

    They should just fire Nick in with DC for a giggle, DC would murder him.

    He is. He’s publicly slated one of his best talents because he had a bad fight. He shouldnt be telling everyone that Ngannou had a bad attitude and didn’t train properly for Stipe. He slates fighters when it hurts him more than it helps him.

    Dana has every right to push his fighters. Ngannou should be ridiculed for that fight, it was a complete joke, the time and effort they have put into him and he does that.

    There’s more than one way to skin a cat, Dana himself would probably tell you his knee * reactions post event are too much.

    He’s an emotional guy, it’s caught him out many times before.

    Could also say Dana shouldn't have put Ngannou in there, there must have been whispers that he had zero wrestling. In hindsight, from the outside, it was a mismatch but those on the inside should have forecast that.

    Dont think you would of seen an Eddie Hearn put his most hyped fighter into a mismatch like that. Not before really milking the hype at least.

    He's put him in there with Derek Lewis who is not great by any standard, the way Ngannou destroyed Overeem was a main reason he was hyped. Boxing promotion of fighters is completely different. it's more about the individual. The UFC is about the UFC the brand, not the individual but everyone is expected to perform and if you are throwing only 5 strikes in two rounds and eleven overall and everyone is booing and * off that effects the brand and effects PPV's, Dana has every right to be angry.
