Colby Covington policy - ATT implements ‘gag order’ on trash talking teammates

Colby Covington’s persona has drawn the ire of a good handful of fighters. Some of those are his own teammates at the American Top Team in Florida.

ATT owner Dan Lambert apparently has had enough, and decided to impose a new policy on trash talking within his gym.

”It’s gotten personal, and I think I was wrong,” Lambert told MMA Fighting. “I think I made a mistake. I think I should have nipped it in the bud, and it’s gotten to the point where it’s trickled down where it affects coaches, it affects training partners, it affects vibes at the gym, and as a result, we’ve adjusted and come up with a new policy.
