Lyman Good Denies Using Banned Substance, Will Challenge Anti-Doping Violation

October 27, 2016 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Lyman Good is denying that he used a banned substance in the wake of the USADA notifying him of a potential anti-doping violation. Good’s manager David Fish disclosed to MMA Fighting that Good sent him as well as coaches Danny and Ron Schulmann texts claiming that he has never used any banned drug.

“I’d NEVER cheat the journey of hard work and more importantly I’d NEVER cheat myself,” Good said in the text. “The integrity of my name is something that I’ve worked too hard just to have it questioned because of whatever the [expletive] they’re saying is in my system.”

Fish said that Good will challenge the potential violation, which stemmed from an out-of-competition test on October 14th. He was subsequently pulled from his UFC 205 bout with Belal Muhammad.
