Brendan Schaub Although he won’t officially label it as a retirement, it appears Brendan Schaub ’s time competing in the UFC’s octagon is over. Schaub (10-5 MMA, 6-5 UFC) has not fought since UFC 181 in December when he suffered a first-round TKO loss to Travis Browne. The outcome marked his second consecutive loss, and a variety of issues have since caused Schaub to question his future in the sport. The 32-year-old has a number of ventures outside of fighting, the most notable being “The Fighter and The Kid” podcast he co-hosts alongside comedian Bryan Callen. Schaub said success outside of the cage has incrementally drained his competitive spirit and made it easier to push fighting to the side. Moreover, his very public disdain for the UFC’s apparel partnership with Reebok has created an environment in which Schaub isn’t willing to make the sacrifices to fight.
