Knowing how to do a takedown is the new trt.

What he needs to do is learn how to get out of a damn half guard lol. He looked completely lost, like it was foreign to him.

I said the same thing Schaub is saying the night of the fights.. We will see fighters try to get the win more carefully in the future I think.

A win is a win, even by LnP. Dana would have a tough time cutting people who have just won, having said that as soon as Schaub loses again he'll probably get cut.

If fighters fought how fans wanted them to fight they would have shorter careers than NFL players.

This ain't kickboxing. Suck your thumb and snuggle your blankie elsewhere.

Exactly, he didn't do or attempt shit on the ground. I love how some people on here defend the styles of guys like Fitch, Schaub, Machida, saying they stick to a game plan and win. This is a FIGHT, you are supposed to mix it up or at least go for a sub or GNP. Running away from your opponent or taking them down and just laying on them is not fighting. Fine, he won and is keeping his job for now. I would love for management to give Schaub someone like Hunt or Carwin next.... its just a matter of time before he is packing his bags

He won. That's something. He still has a job. That's something.

I cant stand Brendan and wanted him to get ko'd but just about anybody would've done that to save their job. Maybe his next opponent can defend a td

He is one of my least favourite fighters, and he did lay a bit, probably recovering from being hit, but he did try a lot of things, rewatch the fight.
