Matt Serra Admits To TRT Use, 'It's fun', Says The Former Champ
BJPENN.COM News - June 18, 2014
“After I got done fighting, I was always on the mat six days a week. So I got on the TRT. I had some back issues, I’m always on the mat and I figured I’d get my levels checked because I had some guys going who were around my age or a little bit older. So I went to the doctor and my things [levels]were at 300, and I was like ‘wow, so I’m a candidate? As long as I’m not fighting, who cares?” …It is funny. I don’t know why my levels were [that low]. Usually you get low stuff [testosterone] because you have done stuff. I’ve never done anything. Never in my life. TRT is fun. The thing is I’m retired now man. I get a shot in the ass. I go to a legit place once a week. I got tested man and that shit was low. I’m not doing it in a back alley. I’m at a legit doctor’s office.”

He said he wasn’t happy about the pay before, then three days later took it back (and) said, ‘Well, I didn’t mean it.’ Now he’s talking about it again. “So my point was not to make fun of (him), but just say, either you are unhappy and you stick to your guns or you are happy (and) then don’t talk about it. The only way pay will ever change is if the top guys (and) the champions start to speak out, but they have to stick to their guns, not flip-flop.”
