WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. – Enough about the ear. It’s big, red, and it stings something fierce anytime someone touches it. When your job consists of hitting and being hit all day, that happens fairly often, so it’s not as if Brendan Schaub is any danger of forgetting about the mass of tissue hanging off the left side of his head.
Still, the remarks keep coming, mostly from Grudge’s head trainer, Trevor Wittman.
“Can you even hear through that thing?” he asks. Yes, Schaub can hear, perhaps a little too well when it comes to the non-stop cracks about his ear.
“Does it hurt?” Wittman wants to know. It hurts like hell, Schaub tells him, and talking about it doesn’t seem to be helping all that much.
