A comprehensible list of all the lies he tells in this story below
Source:
Claim: He says Royce Gracie vs Ken Shamrock was the first ever fight in UFC 1.
Truth: Their fight was sandwiched in a tournament bracket. Wasn’t the first or last fight of the night.
Claim: 10th or 11th ranked Brendan was set to fight 2nd ranked heavyweight Travis Browne.
Truth: Travis was ranked 3rd at the time and Brendan wasn’t even in the top 15.
Claim: UFC 181 took place at the MGM Grand and there were 25,000 people in attendance.
Truth: UFC 181 took place at Mandalay Bay and there was less than 10,000 people in attendance.
Claim: As he entered the arena it was like a movie and everyone was chanting his name.
Truth: There was light applause from the crowd and you can’t see or hear anyone chanting his name. One guy is giving him a thumbs down.
Claim: Will Smith, Ice-T, and Leonardo DiCaprio were in the front row.
Truth: None of those celebrities were at UFC 181. Separately they’ve each been at different UFC’s. The celebs in attendance at UFC 181 were Laura Prepon, Craig Robinson, and Jeremy Piven.

Claim: Brendan had pomade in his hair and looked like an asshole.
Truth: His hair was fully buzzed. No pomade. He still looked like an asshole tho.

Claim: While Bruce Buffer was announcing him, Brendan was staring at Leonardo reaching his hand out for help. He tells us to watch it and see for ourselves.
Truth: Leo wasn’t even there and Brendan was pacing back and forth with his hands down.

Claim: As soon as the fight began he sprinted towards his opponent.
Truth: He took one step forward and was immediately backed up to the cage.

If I was able to prove all those lies against the widely documented events he mentions, imagine the amount of lies he tells about events that aren’t easily fact-checked.
Actually it happens all the time. I detest stand up comedy, and even I know this. See: bert's machine/ Morgan stories, Greg Wilson on last comic standing, the various thieves like Schumer, Robin, mencia, etc. You post like donny in the theater with Walter and the dude.You are fucking pathetic lmao. You don't fact check stand up comedy. Its not meant to be truthful. Holy fuck this is pathetic.
I'VE never once seen a stand up bit getting "fact checked". MMA fans should avoid comedy. They are the joke, they don't get jokes.

"You're like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know..."
Yeah, none of the things I mentioned have multiple articles and videos checking the validity of those claims. Cue the nonexistent "can't tell if trolling or stupid" meme I keep asking for.Joke stealing is nothing like fact checking lol
First of all, comedic embellishment is when you make up things or exaggerate to make the story funnier. Not to make yourself look better as Schaub did. Second of all, the fact that you think this is stand up comedy tells me you are the son of a whore and you have no business commenting on this. You're a homeless cat, you do not matterYou are fucking pathetic lmao. You don't fact check stand up comedy. Its not meant to be truthful. Holy fuck this is pathetic.

What you should do is stop having an opinion based on other people's opinion
You're a homeless cat, you do not matter
lol what the fuck is this shit
Thank you for your good work kind sir
- He didn't quit fighting the night of the Browne fight, he was very much still trying to fight after and even started the Big Brown Slim Down to try to start fighting at 205. Joe Rogan sat him down for the talk on Dec 11, 2014. Late May/Early June 2015 he was still try to getting to 205 as the BBSD was still going, but the Reebok sponsorship news broke around then, and that's when he finally started to really back away from fighting.
- He was nowhere close to getting a UFC title shot, but in his special he made it seem like he was on the cusp of winning the UFC Heavyweight belt during the Travis Browne fight.
- Royce Gracie vs Ken Shamrock was not the first fight in UFC history, it was the second round of UFC 1. There were at least 4 fights before it. Also he says he had it on VHS tape in 93, it took place Nov 12, 1993. How fast would it have gotten to VHS and distributed at that time? I guess it could have been recorded on VHS from the PPV, so he could have actually had it at that time, but he's still wrong about the first fight.
- When Travis Browne was finishing the fight, Schaub was going in and out of consciousness according to the special, but in every podcast that he talked about this finish he said he was alert, protecting his head, listening to his coaches call out the time left in the round, and talking to the ref telling him not to stop the fight.
- He says that Travis Browne's walk out music was super intimidating but in recaps of the fight on his own podcast he said he remembers thinking that Browne's music was 'alright and he's heard better'.
all glory to r/thefighterandthekidThank you for your good work kind sir
To a degree. But Schaub was dishonest with himself as an MMA fighter too and only got motivated to stop when Rogan put him on blast while handing him opportunities. If it weren't Rogan it is safe to say Schaub would be in Bellator getting knocked out by Ryan Bader.

The gif of his soul leaving his body is my favouriteHahahahaha!
This video clip is the funniest thing he’s been associated with
That, substance abuse and liberalism and some luck.Not to knock the guy because he's doing better than I am, but he's such a clown. He seems very dishonest with himself. Maybe that's the key to making it in entertainment. Be delusional.
