Is Gable Steveson really ready for the UFC’s best heavyweights? Brendan Schaub pumps the brakes on the hype surrounding the Olympic gold medalist, explaining why Steveson’s striking and defense still need work, why he’s at least four fights away from the top five, and what could happen if the UFC pushes him too quickly.

Brendan also answers fan questions about Tom Aspinall, Dana White and Francis Ngannou, Usman vs. Parnasse, Arman’s preparation, Rodtang vs. Demetrious Johnson-style mixed-rules fights, Bo Nickal and prospects entering the UFC too early, fighter pay, Paddy Pimblett discussing men’s mental health, and more on this edition of Big Brown Breakdown Fan Questions.
