The UFC’s newest champ-champ may find herself in a rather unique position, American Top Team boss Dan Lambert argues. The first man to achieve the feat of simultaneously wearing two UFC titles, Conor McGregor, never defended either belt, instead capitalizing on his notoriety to score a huge payday in a boxing match with Floyd Mayweather. This past year, Daniel Cormier became the first man to become a “champ-champ” and defend each title, but he relinquished his light heavyweight belt ahead of this past weekend’s UFC 232, where Amanda Nunes (17-4 MMA, 10-1 UFC) became the first woman to hold two UFC belts after downing Cris Cyborg in emphatic fashion . Lambert believes Nunes may be in a different spot than Cormier or McGregor. “I know in some of the deeper divisions they have, it’s impossible to be a champ-champ,” Lambert recently told MMAjunkie Radio. “How’s ‘DC’ going to defend it against the best in the world at heavyweight and the best in the world at light heavyweight at the same time?
