I heard they broke up and he’s a giant dickhead in real life, probably just rumors

The schmo stays in character and stays on point. I respect the hard work and dedication to the bit

Yes!!! The Schmo and Dana are on good terms! I love this duo 🙌🏼

[@blackslav1497]

Who cares. Aslong as Schmo asks questions that dont bother Dana he is good. Basically anybody. He will never interview Mike Bohn cause he asks hard questions.

[@Ritalie]

Notice how he didn't push and try to ask for uncomfortable awkward details? You gotta know when to "Shut your yapper" as Roseanne would say haha.

GOOD TO SEE YALL BACK "CHUMMY"!!!! That was really weird and sad seeing Dana do the Schmo like that! 💯

[@Se7enxNinja]

Damn good job getting another interview with the boss

[@g.shultz2512]

Schmo just asked the wrong question when Dana was in one of those moods. Good to see Schmo got back in Dana's good graces

[@meridianheights6255]

LOL. My boss is the same way. God help you if you try to talk to him on a day that his wife has been bitching at him. Will literally rip your head off. Besides that he's actually a pretty cool guy. Very much like Dana.

[@gspsalienmasterjohnyhendri4106]

Dana is pissed Leon didn't take that fight in London. That would've been huge UK VS USA

[@illlDCllli]

what happened exactly? Leon didn't accept fighting in London?

[@kyleny8010]

The difference between Schmo and Ariel. Ariel would get butthurt and cry and get all pissed if Dana went in on him like Dana did Schmo. Schmo just takes it, turns it into an interview and jokes about it.

[@Triggercut92]

The stuff Dana says about Ariel is wild and it's cause he never soft balled him any questions. The Schmo needs to jump at an interview like this and to tow the line to keep Dana onside. You're trying to dumb a real complex situation down to Ariel being soft, but in actual fact Dana is a truly horrendous and horrible person if you don't do what he wants. Think of every single person that doesn't agree with Dana, they get thrown under the bus. Dana told the schmo he had a "stupid question", but he told Ariel that his kids will have to watch him cry, called him a piece of shit, called him a slimebag, made his life so difficult at UFC events when he worked for ESPN, stripped his media credentials, literally tried to get him fired from ESPN, Got him off the Mayweather Mcgregor tour on Showtime, drags him through the mud at every opportunity and makes it incredibly personal So it ain't really the same, in any way tbh

[@mmaaddict78]

Schmo has had such a rollercoaster career. Glad that he could come meet me back up at the top! You're the man, Schmo! Edit: Schmo, listen to me. You have cultivated an amazing following and an amazing persona. You need to do everything that you can to become a pro wrestling manager. You could be up there with the great Bobby "The Brain" Heenan as a heel manager. Maybe even be a broadcaster like Bobby did. Just throwing it out there. Wish you all of the success, you talented bastard.

[@WebblandMMA]

No kid he’s not listening to you

[@meridianheights6255]

I have always thought that the Schmo was the future. Now, after the merger he's the present. The Schmo is going to be a superstar one day and probably make more money than Dana.

[@WebblandMMA]

@@meridianheights6255 😂😂😂

[@ivancperezgabriel541]

I remember when at the beginning Dana was always like who is this guy at the press conferences and Shmo kept being himself and Dana slowly started liking him. Thanks Shmo for being you bro! And bringing the guard down from the fighters.

Schmo with the Real GOAT right there. We gotta give Dana his flowers while he's here still running the ship. Without him, MMA as a whole would 100 percent not be where it's at today. He may be the Boss, but every time he speaks you can tell he's a Fight-Fan first, and that's the reason I think we keep getting better fights every year with the Best fighting the Best.

[@stormeth1313]

Schmo needs a respected place in the UFC commentary rankings, he’s the P4P interviewing 🐐

[@Crazyjedi2]

"To come out and risk everything for a chance at the title shot is huge" They didn't choose to risk everything you FORCED them to by pushing Colby as the next title challenger when Belal or Gilbert both would've been far better choices.

4:15: I think people don't mind the weight, or if the fight is for the UFC title, people want to see good fights, and one of them would be Chimaev vs Usman; could be made at 180 pounds, I think it would be easy for both.

Dana definitely got selective hearing Bro answered every question but the last one😹

[@johno30197]

[@DevinMcSalty]

I think Dana actually showed great humility(for his standards) by doin a sitdown wit him, you can tell he doesn’t get/like his style yet still respects him enough to answer the questions

[@Ritalie]

Really the Schmo was very respectful here, and I think it was a professional interview. This is how you conduct an interview, and knowing when to stop asking questions and move to the next question, is an important art. Trying to force the issue isn't a good move because then you don't get anymore interviews.

[@williamboyle8918]

Dana likes the schmo, he wanted no Jorge / Colby unresolved felony drama. on that day. Dana made a deal with Colby concerning Masvidal.
