Dana White’s Friend Threatened to a Fight From Ex-UFC Veteran as Rivalry With CEO Takes a Bad Turn – “You’re Not Going to Get Ringside Tickets”

Brendan Schaub seems to be annoyed with one of the many friends of UFC CEO, Dana White. Recently, Stephen Deleonardis, better known as Stevewilldoit of the Nelk Boys, took shots at the former UFC fighter for the comments he made about the UFC 300 pay-per-view event. Although Schaub has ignored criticisms in the past, this one seemed to have stung him a bit.

UFC 300 was a banger! There’s no way two ways about it. However, Dana White wasn’t happy with people’s initial reaction to the card and shared a video to express that. Interestingly, that video also had a montage of all the negative remarks people across the MMA community made about the triple-century PPV, including Brendan Schaub. When Stevewilldoit came across this video, he retweeted it by sharing harsh comments about Schaub, which left a bad taste in the veteran’s mouth, to say the least.

Brendan Schaub has words of warning for ‘good guy’ Stevewilldoit

‘Big Brown’ came clean about his thoughts on the comments Stevewilldoit made about him. First of all, the former UFC fighters labeled the social media influencer as being ignorant about how the fight business works. In a video clip from a recent episode of ‘The Schaub Show’, he was seen saying, “Stevewilldoit, he came at me on Twitter (X)… You don’t know what you’re doing. You’re not educated on the dynamics of everything.”

“I just think he’s ill-informed… he’s probably like, you know, wants to ride with Dana and Dana helps him out and they’re boys.” Brendan Schaub claimed that just because he’s friends with Dana White, the social media star will not get any extra favors from the UFC CEO because he’s standing up for him, indicating that he is riding on the 54-year-old’s coattails.

Brendan Schaub continued, “He’s not the only one. I assume he’s protecting his boy. Other people that do it, it’s like, but you’re not gonna get ringside tickets defending Dana.” However, ‘Big Brown’ claimed to have no problems with settling his differences with Stevewilldoit. If the Nelk Boys members want to sort things out physically, he’s welcome to do so.

“You know, with Steve, I have no issues with him. He seems like a good guy. Anybody who knows him tells me he’s a good guy… But I’m easy to find. Super easy to find,” the ex-UFC fighter added. Not only did he threaten to get physical, but Schaub even suggested that Dana White’s friend get in contact with a mutual friend they have and set up a possible meeting. If you are wondering who that mutual friend is, it is none other than Bradley Martin.

Will Bradley Martin mediate the Schaub-Stevewilldoit beef?

Brendan Schaub seems to be serious about Steveweilldoit. He really wants to get in touch with the social media influencer and has proposed to use the help of fellow influencer Bradley Martin to set that up. “We have a mutual friend in Bradley Martin… He’s best friends with Steve. So, there’s a mutual friend there… you can get my number from Bradley,” the 41-year-old veteran stated.

However, Schaub does not dismiss the use of dialog to sort things out with Dana White’s friend. But if that did not work out, they could hash things out the hard way. “If there’s something going on that I don’t know about, you’re so upset I can meet you… [at] whichever location you want. We can meet there and talk about it. If you’re so mad, we can go in the back room and figure it out,” he added.

Now how will Stevewilldoit react to this callout from Brendan Schaub? Will Dana White intervene in this situation? It will be interesting to see how things will develop on this front in the days to come.
