Fan Questions: UFC Roster Issues, Weight Cutting & MVP

Brendan Schaub is back with a Sunday Fan Q&A on The Schaub Show, answering questions on Conor McGregor’s comeback, UFC weight cutting, and the current state of MMA.

He also discusses potential matchups for McGregor, including Paddy Pimblett, and why the UFC must be careful with his return. The episode dives into whether the UFC roster is becoming “watered down” due to too many events, and why adding a 165lb division may not work right now due to a lack of depth. Schaub also analyzes the future of MMA on Netflix through Jake Paul’s MVP promotion, explaining why fewer, bigger events could be the only way to compete with Dana White and the UFC.
