Brendan Schaub calls UFC President Dana White “low budget Vince McMahon” following UFC 279 rant about conspiracy theories
Brendan Schaub had a lot to say in his response to the President of the UFC.
Schaub issued this post folllowing Dana White’s rant about a UFC 279 conspiracy theory he and UFC Hall of Famer Pat Miletich floated about the promotion’s role in the last-second headliner shakeup.
White initially took aim at Miletich after Tuesday’s Contender Series event, saying the ex-UFC champ would be the “dumbest motherf***** on the planet” if he thought the promotion orchestrated Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz’s re-booking after Chimaev’s huge weight miss.
Schaub on Monday posted the response to White on his Instagram account with a picture of MMA Fighting’s story about the rant, which ended with the UFC exec taking a shot at Schaub after naming Miletich as the source of the theory (Miletich did, in fact, espouse a similar theory in a recent Instagram post).
The former UFC heavyweight turned podcaster/comedian immediately got personal, referencing an earlier Twitter spat with White, and doubled down on his skepticism about the promotion’s official line on the UFC 279 shakeup.
Below is Schaub’s full Instagram post.
Oh god… here we go again. I’ve been nothing but cool and thought you’d learn from the last time you mentioned my name and got destroyed. Unfortunately, not surprised you’re a bully. Always have been. You put on a pair of designer jeans and some “hip sneakers” and think you’re cool. You’re still a dork with a frat bro vocabulary. Calling me and numerous people “dummy” “dumbass” “f*cking idiot” cause we have questions about “the chaos” at UFC279? Also, no one is talking about *gate tickets,* I was referring to *pay per view buys* and how UFC 279 was *trending*… which you don’t release to the public, but will say “it went F*ckin great bros!” Sorry, we just don’t buy what you’re telling us after lying numerous times but the sheep media you pick to attend events don’t have the balls to call you out. Just in the recent press conference you were caught lying about extra compensation to the fighters. You need a reality check. You’re surrounded by “Yes men.” You’re not special, you’re not original. You’re a low budget Vince McMahon. Every move you make is a copy cat of that dude. Only thing you have in common is you’re both on steroids and dress like assholes. Need I remind you, your origin story is a failed cardio kick boxing instructor who had two rich friends in high school to fund this business. Now go make a “cool” video with the Nelk boys to stay relevant or have your PR team come up with a good press story to distract the fans away from fighter pay and how they have to wear those awful under armor Rock shoes and won’t see a dime. “Dummy”
PS. Quit stealing my shows on thicccboy network and recreating it on Fight pass, k?
Also… leave Pat Miletich alone.
