But despite the fan’s jabs at his MMA analysis, Brendan Schaub recently revealed an interesting look at another former UFC heavyweight’s career and future!
‘The Predator’ may not return to PFL according to Schaub
In the uncertain landscape of Francis Ngannou’s MMA future, Brendan Schaub is skeptical about Ngannou returning to the PFL. Schaub believes Ngannou’s success in securing lucrative boxing matches with heavyweight giants like Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua may signal the end of his MMA journey!

In a recent video on his YouTube channel, the former fighter explained, “The PFL thing never made sense to me, and I think PFL is his side chick, I think it’s a Plan B.”
He also dismissed the PFL as “lacking” the caliber of competition found in the UFC, where top-tier heavyweights like Ciryl Gane, Tom Aspinall, and Jon Jones reside. Therefore, the lure of substantial paydays and marquee matchups in the boxing world seems to overshadow the potential legacy impact of a PFL belt in Ngannou’s career, according to Schaub.
