Former UFC Heavyweight contender Brendan Schaub’s new show “Below The Belt” aired it’s first episode last night on the Showtime Cable channel as his show has now been moved from their online network to the cable network. Schaub has been saying some outrageous things to bring in ratings, first the racist comments about Yves Edwards and UFC on Fox that even his best friend Joe Rogan scolded him about. Now he’s calling out Martial Arts legend Bruce Lee. In a sit down interview with NFL legend Brandon Marshall, Schaub takes a left turn and pisses off a lot of people with his comments.

Brendan Schaub aka ‘Big Brown’ was born and raised in Aurora, Colorado, to an English mother Debra and an American father Peter Schaub.[4]He is of German, Italian, and English descent.[5] He was an all-state performer in football and lacrosse at Overland High School. After high school, he attended Whittier College, where he was a member of both the football and lacrosse teams. Prior to his junior year he transferred to the University of Colorado, where he redshirted his first season, playing tight end before moving to fullback. He went on to appear in 26 games during his career at CU with no starts.[6] After college, Schaub played football in the Arena Football League with the Utah Blaze and spent time on the practice squad for the NFL’s Buffalo Bills.

After retiring from football, Schaub returned to Colorado where he began training in mixed martial arts. His father is a 2nd degree black belt in taekwondo.[citation needed] He began boxing and practicing jiu-jitsu before he started his football career, primarily as a means of staying in shape. After only six months of training in boxing, Schaub won a novice division Golden Gloves title. He also found UFC middleweight contender Nate Marquardt’s gym, High Altitude Martial Arts located in Aurora. Schaub split his time between there and the Grudge Training Center in Arvada, where he met UFC heavyweight contender Shane Carwin, also a Grudge Fight Team member. The two became friends as well as training partners. Before long, Schaub won the 2007 Colorado-New Mexico Golden Gloves Novice division heavyweight title, and was later awarded his purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Schaub competed on the tenth season of The Ultimate Fighter fighting for Team Rashad.[8] Schaub and James McSweeney were the two fighters Rashad Evans wanted most[citation needed], as they both trained with him at Team Jackson. Evans made Schaub his 2nd pick and the 3rd overall. He fought on the fourth episode against Demico Rogers, defeating him via first round submission with an anaconda choke, and moved onto the quarter finals. In the quarterfinals, Schaub won his fight by knockout (KO) in the second round against teammate, Jon Madsen. In the semifinals, Schaub defeated Marcus Jones of Team Rampage via KO in the first round. This win advanced Schaub to The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights Finale, where he lost by KO in the first round to Roy Nelson.
