Brendan Schaub backs Conor McGregor amidst substance abuse row

Former UFC heavyweight Brendan Schaub has come out in support of Conor McGregor. The former double-champion is facing allegations of PED (Performance-enhancing drugs) use in light of his jacked-up physique.

McGregor was suspected by UFC light heavyweight Anthony Smith, in response to which the Irishman wrote a series of angry tweets at 'Lionheart'.

Schaub spoke on The Schaub Show on his YouTube channel and defended McGregor. He asked fans not to judge Conor McGregor for recovering in the best way possible, even if he did use PEDs:

"He's the cash cow. Do what you [McGregor] gotta do to get back. Because when he does compete, he's going to be clean. It's a gray area... You guys judging Conor or anybody that's done things out there and [suffers] a horrible injury like that, you don't know what the f**k you're talking about."
