However, reacting to claims of steroid use from Ryan by Musumeci, the former claimed the grappling star was constantly attacking him in a “passive-aggressive” manner.
“Mikey (Musumeci) just attacked me,” Gordon Ryan told Jake Shields on his podcast. “The only thing I’ve ever done is talk highly of Mikey. The thing about Mikey is Mikey will be like, ‘If you do steroids’ — Mikey has been taking passive-aggressive shots at me forever. The thing about Mikey is he’ll make one post that’s like, ‘Hey if you take steroids, you’re mentally weak. You’re too weak and you need a crutch.'”
“He’ll talk about like if yo use steroids then you’re mentally weak, and his very next post will be like, ‘I’m depressed and I’m sad and we really need to talk about mental,’ — Bro, f*cking do your thing and leave everybody else alone.”
