Brendan Schaub shared an intense post citing UFC President Dana White as a ‘bully’. It came after the chaos of UFC 279 as the veteran promoter criticized Joe Rogan’s friend and podcaster himself (Schaub) in the Contender Series post-fight interview. Thus, Schaub responded with a lengthy Instagram post.

The 53-year-old has had verbal online exchanges with the MMA fighter-turned-comic artist prior. And perhaps there it only needed a small comment from Dana White to reignite their beef.

Brendan Schaub responded to Dana White after DWCS remarks

In an Instagram post, The Fighter and The Kid podcast host targeted the former cardio kickboxer trainer turned MMA promoter.

Schaub wrote, “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.”

Both of them have fired shots at each other in the past. Last year, referee John McCarthy suggested that the ex-UFC fighter got one over Dana White; Even the UFC supremo barely mentioned the podcaster after that.

Dana White’s rants in press conferences questioned

The UFC President often goes on lengthy tirades against individuals he does not like and uses similar phrases. Schaub pointed it out and called the UFC President a ‘dork with a frat bro vocabulary’.

The ex-UFC heavyweight also called out the promoter for ‘lying’ as he mentioned the ‘sheep media’ are afraid to point this out.

The podcast host said, “You were caught lying about extra compensation to the fighters. You need a reality check.”

Even MMA Journalist Ariel Helwani, whose access to UFC was restricted, talked about the same in a segment in the MMA Hour – fighters potentially being paid more for the shuffled event, but UFC President opposing it in his presser.

Dana White compared to Vince McMahon

The comic artist, who often appears on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast with longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan and has WWE references in his discussion, labeled White as ‘low budget’ Vince McMahon.

“Every move you make is a copy cat of that dude,” said Schaub.

The martial arts practitioner also added, “Only thing you have in common is you’re both on steroids and dress like a**holes.”

Dana White and Vince McMahon share a cordial relationship with each other, with the UFC President having mentioned the former WWE Chairman often in his speeches.

UFC and Dwayne Johnson’s shoe deal

After calling out White for hanging with Nelk Boys to look ‘cool’, Schaub mentioned how fighters are not getting any extra benefit from Hollywood star Dwayne ‘The Rock‘ Johnson’s and the premier MMA organization’s shoe deal.

Project Rock became the official footwear of UFC. Thus Schaub said, “they have to wear those awful under armor Rock shoes and won’t see a dime.”
