Brendan Schaub breaks down one of the wildest weeks in MMA — from backstage fighter chaos to Dana White’s stories about Francis Ngannou, to Conor McGregor’s psychedelic reset in Mexico. This episode dives deep into the real drama happening behind the scenes in the UFC, the title-shot picture across multiple divisions, and the controversies shaking up the MMA world. In this episode: • Francis Ngannou vs UFC Brass Brendan reacts to Dana White’s claims that Francis grabbed him and UFC execs behind the scenes, and explains why fighter–promoter tension has existed for decades. • Dagestani Fighter Backstage Incidents Schaub calls out the escalating pattern of pushing, slapping, and confrontations among Dagestani fighters during UFC events — and why they get a cultural “pass” others wouldn’t. • Sorukyan, Topuria, Paddy & UFC Lightweight Politics A full breakdown of who actually deserves the next shot, why Sorukyan is the toughest matchup, and how the UFC might play the business side. • Islam Makhachev’s Next Opponent at 170 Ian Machado Garry vs Michael Morales vs the rest of the division — who truly poses danger to the champion, and why knockout power matters more than rankings. • Mighty Mouse Separates From MMA Guru Why DJ ended their show, what Guru said, and how crossing into mainstream spaces changes the game. • Conor McGregor’s Psychedelic Experience A breakdown of Conor’s intense vision quest in Mexico — including the “Jesus crowned me” moment — and why he may finally be trying to change his life. • Kamaru Usman on Being Knocked Out Usman explains what he remembers (and doesn’t) from the Leon Edwards head kick, and Brendan expands on what really happens during a KO. • Gable Steveson KO & Past Allegations Schaub reacts to Gable’s insanely fast KO and breaks down the controversy surrounding his old legal case and the Minnesota intoxication loophole. If you love real MMA insight, fighter stories, behind-the-scenes details, and honest takes no one else will say — this is your episode.
