UFC fighter Lyman Good is suing the manufacturer Gaspari Nutrition and Vitamin Shoppe after he failed a United States Anti-Doping Agency drug test. 

TMZ Sports reported the news Thursday, noting Good filed the suit in New York and is seeking unspecified damages. The fighter said he purchased the multi-vitamin Anavite before his UFC 205 fight, which was found to contain 1-andro upon further testing.

The 1-andro—an illegal anabolic steroid—was allegedly not mentioned on the label, and Good said Gaspari Nutrition “intentionally added the steroids in order to ‘increase sales in the competitive dietary supplements industry.'” 

This comes after Marc Raimondi of MMA Fighting reported in April that Good received a six-month suspension from the USADA and was pulled from his UFC 205 fight against Belal Muhammad that was scheduled to take place in Madison Square Garden.

Raimondi noted the six-month suspension was retroactive to Oct. 24.

Good’s last fight was July 22, when he lost to Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos in a Round 3 split decision.

UFC on FOX 25 emanated from the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York tonight (Saturday, July 22, 2017). The main card on network television was headlined by world-ranked middleweights Chris Weidman and Kelvin Gastelum, and the former champion Weidman got back to his winning ways in impressive fashion. But Weidman’s third-round submission victory was not enough to earn him a Performance of the Night bonus.

Those went to Junior Albini and Alex Oliveira. Heavyweight newcomer Albini boxed up the notoriously durable Tim Johnson on his way to a first-round TKO. The Brazilian Albini was able to thwart the takedown game of the wrestling-minded American and let his hand speed do the work. That work netted him an extra $50,000.

Oliveira, meanwhile, hit a walk-off knockout on Ryan LaFlare, who previously had never been finished. LaFlare controlled most of the first frame with wrestling and top-control, but was stuck on the feet in the second. As he rushed in to initiate a clinch, Oliveira nailed him with a flush right uppercut that sent LaFlare face-first to the canvas, immobile. “Cowboy” calmly walked away, knowing the fight was over and an extra $50,000 would be in his bank account tomorrow.

The Fight of the Night went to the barnburner between welterweight sluggers Lyman Good and Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos. The fight mostly took place on the feet, as the two men largely shut down each other’s takedowns. Good took the first frame with pressure, landing the cleaner punches, and taking dos Santos down. The second was close, as dos Santos landed more but Good landed the cleaner shots. Dos Santos seemed to take the third in a wild five minutes and garnered himself a split decision. Both men went home $50,000 richer for their efforts.
