ATT owner comments on Covington mocking Glenn Robinson’s death: I’m not going to talk trash about somebody who’s passed away

Things got personal between UFC 245 headliners Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington earlier this month at the pre-fight press conference in Las Vegas.

After accusing Usman of using steroids, ‘Chaos’ brought up the death of Hard Knocks 365 (formerly Blackzilians) co-founder Glenn Robinson, who passed away last year due to heart attack. Covington implied that Usman was responsible for Robinson’s death and said the former coach would be watching ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ from hell.

Asked about Covington’s comments, American Top Team (ATT) owner Dan Lambert, who had an ongoing rivalry with Robinson, said it would be hugely irresponsible of him to ‘talk trash’ of Robinson in passing.
