    He's a former UFC fighter, former ****er of Ronda Rousey, who barely speaks on MMA intelligently so yea I'm not even sure I'd call him a solid casual boxing fan.

    I know he's cool with Tony Jeffries (UK Olympian) from way back & he's an extremely likeable & funny cat & that seems to be why he's getting so many gigs lately vs him knowing boxing or anything else.

    As a guy who's been aware of him since he was a decent UFC HW its been amazing to watch his transformation from that to a media guy who's got 2 or 3 podcasts now, does standup comedy to sold out shows across the US & now has a boxing gig on Showtime.

    If there is a legit Illuminati Schaub joined them in the last couple years cuz I'm not sure I seen a guy from combat sports winning outside of the ring/cage like Schaub has been ever.

          Dude didn't say anything racist but he is clearly feels threatened by black people.

          Apparently he was having a hissy fit because a commentating crew was all black. Funny how these types of people don't seem to mind if a commentating crew is all white.

            As a person who listened to this whole 2hr-ish podcast in context & not just a 26 second or w/e video thats not what he was saying. You missed the point cuz the context was lost.

            The context was he felt the UFC was trying cater to a black audience &/or black fans or just non-white fans.

            And the real context of the context is Branden is a cat who's TRYING to create some level of controversy & tries to have a contrarian take way to often for no other reason then to have a contrarian take on a topic. And thats why he was wayyyyyy off with this opinion cuz plenty of times the most knowledgeable people to have up there are non-white or black people & its happened plenty of times beyond this one time he mentioned & he knows that, but that didn't fit his narrative of trying to be a contrarian & trying to "call out" the UFC for trying to appease snowflakes who happen to watch MMA.

            And randomly for my money give me Woodley & Cormier up there with the chick, who's name I always forget, every time cuz both those cats have great opinions & she's solid at asking the right question & is older, but still has enough sexiness/flirtiness to keep people watching.

                    I first became aware of Schaub when I heard a clip of him bashing boxing before the Mayweather/McGregor fight . After that I seen a promo for his show on Showtime and thought " why this guy "?
