American Top Team Owner Has Nothing Bad To Say About Robbie Lawler

American Top Team (ATT) owner Dan Lambert has nothing bad to say about former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler. Lawler became ATT’s first-ever champion when he defeated Johny Hendricks to become the new 170-pound king back in 2014.

American Top Team (ATT) owner Dan Lambert has nothing bad to say about former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler.

Lawler became ATT’s first-ever champion when he defeated Johny Hendricks to become the new 170-pound king back in 2014. He would defend the belt two times before eventually losing it to Tyron Woodley in 2016. Woodley also trained at ATT at the time, and following the loss, Lawler would depart the gym for Hard Knocks 365.

Slated to fight Colby Covington in the UFC Newark headliner next, “Chaos” started stirring things up by claiming “Ruthless” left because ATT put up a photo of Woodley winning the title in the gym. For his part, Lawler has not directly responded to those claims.

Neither has Lambert, who didn’t comment much on the reasons behind Lawler leaving. He didn’t have any negative things to say either:

“Well from my standpoint, fighters come and fighters go,” Lambert told MMA Junkie Radio. “We focus on the fighters that are at the gym, not fighters who have left. I don’t have anything bad to say about Robbie Lawler.

Even if I did, he’d be the last person I’d say something bad about, I mean look at the guy. Look at the guy and look at his status in the sport.”

Lawler has also trained with Covington before, and despite the latter’s claims and brash personality in general, the former champion had good things to say about him. That is one of the reasons why Lambert is focused solely on Covington and not any other potential drama:

“You’re going to try and get into a PR battle with that guy?” Lambert added. “You’re going to lose that one every time but you know, we focus on people that are at the gym. Try to make them better, get them to fight. Colby is at our gym, Robbie is not so we’re focusing on Colby.”

What do you make of Lambert’s comments?

Dustin Poirier did more than just win a UFC world championship this past weekend.

He helped further his Good Fight Foundation with a pair of generous donations. First, UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway donated his gloves from he and Poirier’s UFC 236 fight to the cause.

The funds will go towards the non-profit charity, which is aiming to raise enough money to build a playground for disabled children at Prairie Elementary School in “The Diamond’s” hometown of Lafayette, Louisiana. The playground is being built in honor of seven-year-old Aaron Hill, who passed away in October of 2017 from a rare brain disorder called adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD).

MMA Junkie also reports that American Top Team (ATT) owner Dan Lambert is donating Poirier’s UFC 236 gym funds to Good Fight. The funds are valued at more than $12,000:

“That’s a big deal to me,” Poirier said.

Poirier’s UFC 236 fight kit started at $500, and has now surpassed $8,000 because of all of the attention. As for Holloway’s gloves, those have already been sold:

“Here is the link for the @TheGoodFightFDN auction! Its everything I wore to the octagon on Saturday night. The gloves aren’t being auctioned with it because I had a generous offer for them that will help our goal! Thank you all!!”
