Lyman Good has faced physical and emotional turmoil ahead of UFC on ESPN 11 on Saturday.
Originally scheduled to compete in April, Good was pulled from his fight against Belal Muhammad after he was diagnosed with COVID-19. He was the first known fighter on the UFC roster to test positive for the deadly disease.
After recovering, Good’s fight with Muhammad was rescheduled for June 20, but sadly, he faced a personal tragedy a few weeks ago when his father died of natural causes.
“It’s definitely been a long road,” Good told MMA Fighting on Thursday during the UFC on ESPN 11 media day.
