With a bold and creative theory, former UFC fighter and current commentator Brendan Schaub has sparked a flurry of speculative speculation as excitement for UFC 300 grows. Although there is still no official fight card for the historic event, Schaub’s recent revelation on “The Schaub Show” has shocked the mixed martial arts community.
While the elite fighters appear to have their schedules booked before UFC 300, Schaub has boldly predicted a major event that will include the legendary Georges St-Pierre (GSP) facing Nick Diaz again. The theory goes further; according to Schaub, the historic UFC 300 will also feature a high-stakes match between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler, despite recent remarks made by UFC CEO Dana White.
Schaub’s “little conspiracy” is based on the finding that a number of notable fighters have already committed to events that take place before UFC 300. According to his hypothetical plan, the card would feature a memorable and possibly explosive rematch between GSP and Diaz in addition to the highly anticipated McGregor vs. Chandler bout.
Schaub said, “I got a little conspiracy.” “The majority of the big dogs are already taken before UFC 300, if you look at the topography. Therefore, I believe that at UFC 300, you will see GSP-Nick Diaz and Conor McGregor-Chandler. I have no inside information, and I did not source verify anything associated with this, but this is simply how I perceive the situation to unfold.”
Schaub’s theory revolves around the unusual social media behavior of the typically retired GSP. Fighters who retire from the sport typically have a smaller online presence, but Schaub notes that GSP has been actively producing content across a number of platforms. Furthermore, GSP’s decision to forego a planned grappling match in favor of commentating instead of competing is another piece that fits Schaub’s intricate theory.
“He was supposed to grapple on December 15th, they pulled him from that card,” Schaub said. “He’s only now making a comment about it. He’s in good shape, so I believe they’re pulling him, and he’ll stay in good shape to compete at UFC 300. Just adding, I have no reason to believe this.
It’s important to remember that rumors circulated that the wrestling match between GSP and Diaz was called off due to injuries sustained by both during training.
The MMA community is anticipating the UFC 300 fight card announcement with great anticipation, and Brendan Schaub’s audacious and creative theory has added to the fervor and excitement. Regardless of whether his plot comes to pass or stays a work of fiction, it certainly heightens the excitement surrounding an already highly anticipated UFC milestone.
