Sorry sorry, he did say he had staph as well but he was really nailing home the big bruise on Cowboy's upper thigh, sounded like he gave it a thorough examination himself.

I wonder how it will affect Lawler . Thats a long training camp he is in he would be better taking a week or so off

That's big of him...

There's no embedded released for the weekend's fights which is strange as usually they'd be at least 1 if not 2 out by now.

Schaub is doing a standup show in the Sugarclub on the 5th of August... Jaysis this might be worth going to just to see how bad he is...

It'd be worth the price of admission to heckle him

I was listening to him recently and he was saying how he met some Irish mma fans recently said how they must be big conor fans, they responded by slagging him over how big a conor nuthugger he was. He said he went mad :pac: fair play lads.

Gamebred

I give him stick but hes doing something right his podcast does massive numbers much better off than being ko'd in the UFC fair play to Rogan for telling him to quit, I'd say his ''stand up'' consists of him standing there telling fight stories.

None of the fighters speak particularly good English bar Bobby Knuckles. Valentina actually ain't bad.

Anyways I think they've replaced them with those countdown videos instead. We'll prob get a few on thurs and fri too.

Can anyone recommend a bar that shows the UFC in London? I dont want to miss the Gaethje Johnson fight this weekend.

Chances are this will be well out of your way but I have watched some live UFC in the Cauliflower pub in Ilford in the somewhat recent past. Great old pub in a bit of a sh1tty area

For suuure STFU Schaub.

I'd say the success Schaub is getting so quick in stand up is absolutely killing Callens ego, he's been at it for years and is still playing small clubs for **** money and has serious notions of his talent. This lad gets beat up for a living, tried stand up because rogan told him to and he's selling out theatre's in Europe and Australia.

I think he's said that that's what the basis for his show is, either way fair play to him for giving it ago. I personally like the guy, now that doesn't mean I agree with everything he says.

Callen has his own spin off from the goldbergs and a huge podcast and between them (rogan hinchcliff callen schaub etc ) they seem positive rather than envious towards each other.

Whatever hes doing is working anyway so fair play to him. I think his shows on the road are part standup part fight breakdown

I listened to all fighter and the kid podcasts and I remember one a few months ago where Callen went on a rant about how his stand up special wasn't picked up by Netflix and how they dont recognise his comedy genius :pac: The guy thinks he is up there with Chris Rock or Bill Hicks :rolleyes: Id say he is making a good living though between acting gigs, stand up and the podcast.

Use to listen to the fighter and the kid but callen started to really piss me off, the mans is an idiot.

Bispings podcast is great craic and a good listen

The dropping knowledge section was rage inducing. He's genuinely stupid, reads an article on WaPo and thinks he's an expert in geo-political and economic theory.

Gamebred

I'd rank Joey Diaz and Rogans miles ahead of the pack dont think i've missed an episode, too much lick arsing on Schaubs he never shuts up about his sold out shows and is a bigger Conor fanboy than me.

They are few things I find more irritating than listening to Joey Diaz. Find him unfunny, rambling, ignorant, incoherent and boring.

That video where Rogan is being honest with Schaub telling him he isn't good enough to be an elite UFC HW is seriously real, everyone needs a friend like Rogan in their life

My favourite was the time his 25 minute Dropping Knowledge section was on the subject of Brexit being about how the UK wanted to get rid of the Euro and bring back the British Pound

Firas Zahabi just tweeted Rogan about being on the podcast. I've high expectations for that one.

Schaub's stand up tickets are on sale now for his gig in the sugar club. €30 is a decent price.

30 bean for Schaub is worse than paying 100 for the Mayweather McGregor PPV.

You can go see good comedians in town for free several nights of the week and some of them will even give you ice cream.

MrStuffins

Is it a stand-up show? I thought he was saying it would be a special live edition of "The Big Brown Breakdown" where he discusses McGregor v Mayweather?
