Ryan’s take on USADA testing in Jiu-Jitsu

In another social media post, Ryan recently explained why USADA testing was not feasible in his sport. He was responding to another post explaining the UFC’s $7 million spending for USADA testing in 2022.

Ryan wrote, “People – Jiu-Jitsu needs random testing.” He continued, “Sick, you paying for it? Because these athletes with cardboard box personalities aren’t bringing in enough cash to support testing. The testing would literally cost more than the athletes generate hahahha.”

Ryan is making valid arguments for his case and holding his fort against his doubters. The recent incidents of BJJ athletes receiving USADA suspension only prove Ryan’s point that PED use is rampant in the sport.
