If there is one name that resonates the loudest in the world of grappling, it’s Gordon Ryan. As one of the most celebrated and dominant figures in the sport, Ryan has his fair share of followers and critics alike. However, his recent health struggles have been a major topic of discussion recently.

After a recent trip to Abu Dhabi, Ryan’s health took a downturn. What began as a bout of strep throat soon escalated into a series of complications, necessitating a tonsillectomy and uncovering a fungal growth in his small intestine. The toll on his body was evident, as he lost substantial muscle mass and size.

Unsurprising for Ryan, many fans turned critics, calling him out for his changed physique, and some even suggesting he retire. Since the BJJ legend has always been open about PED usage, many accused him of losing his muscle mass just because he stopped using performance enhancers. Recently, in a recent Instagram post, Ryan shared a physique update that left many intrigued.

In an image posted just hours ago, the 28-year-old looked to be on his way back to fitness. Looking much more bulky than before, he posted a fiery caption with the image, aimed at his detractors. Ryan called out those who have been quick to criticize him, labeling them as “cockroaches” and confidently asserting that greatness will soon transpire.

The response from fans was blazing, to say the least. Soon, many comments calling out ‘The Iron Dragon’ surfaced under his picture. Here are some of the fan reactions –
