MMAFighting.com reached out to Lawler for comment, but did not receive an immediate response.
The reason for Lawler leaving is unclear, but you have to take into consideration the fact that the man who took his welterweight championship off of him and is still the belt holder, still trains at the facility. As of right now, Lawler does not have another gym.
