Brazilian submission specialist Paulo Filho is down with steroids as remarked by Gegard Mousasi, the newly crowned Strikeforce light heavyweight champion and otherwise a very soft-spoken and calm guy.
In a recent interview that Tatame.com, Filho said "[Mousasi] doesn't have my strength, he doesn't have my level on the ground. He can be a better striker, but he doesn't have my strength and he'll go down once and be submitted."
From CBSSports.com:
Mousasi apparently believes that Filho's strength comes from "special powers," and he doesn't mean that Filho was bit by a radioactive spider, as he explained in an interview with Fighters.com.
"What happened when he came to America? He got beat up, now he's back in Japan and he feels like a kid in a candy store I think. He can use all kinds of steroids. I think the steroids have gone to his head.
"He didn't perform the same as he does in Japan as in America, and now he suddenly has a big mouth again."
Referring specifically to Filho's recent loss to Chael Sonnen on American soil, Mousasi speculated, "I think he wasn't feeling very good mentally because he cannot use his magic stuff.
"I would say that he's a little donkey on steroids that thinks he's a running horse now, but he's more like a little pony."
Mousasi said that he would not face Filho unless drug tests are conducted.
