Gordon Ryan recently appeared on Jake Shields’ podcast to discuss various topics within the BJJ community…
And one of the more notable topics focused on his strained relationship with Mikey Musumeci.

Ryan explained that Musumeci has been making passive-aggressive remarks about steroid use for some time, suggesting that those who rely on PEDs are mentally weak.

He found this stance hypocritical, given that Musumeci has been open about his own mental health struggles:

He’s been doing these passive-aggressive shots at me forever.

He’ll make one post that’s like: “Hey, if you take ster*ids, you’re mentally weak. You need a crutch, and you need an out”, blah, blah, blah.

He’ll talk about how if you use ster*ids, you’re mentally weak, and then his very next post will be like: “I’m depressed, I’m sad, and we need to talk about mental health.”

It’s just like, bro, just f*cking do your thing and leave everybody else alone.

Despite having only spoken positively about Musumeci in the past, Ryan noted that Musumeci’s recent attacks have escalated the situation:

It’s very simple: if you attack me, I’ll attack you.
If you see me and you want to fight, let’s fight.

I have nothing against any of these people – besides the B-Team guys, because they’re all backstabbing cockroaches.
They actually f*cked me over.

Mikey’s just like a little rat that talks sh*t.
