Most of his fortune went into these operations. He has been going through this since 2007. The age as well as heavy weightlifting has taken a toll on his health. Ronnie also spoke about the root cause of his health problems with Joe Rogan and when he started facing issues.

The root cause of the health problems

The main reason for these extensive treatments might have started in 1996. This was the year when The King had dislocated his disc while squatting. Coleman ignored his condition for over 10 years and made it worse.

He trained vigorously with 800lbs which finally led to immense health problems. Joe Rogan had advised him on getting treatment in America. Rogan also stated, “My mom was scheduled to get a knee replacement. I sent her down to Panama. And 6 months later, started to feel good. 8 months later, no pain at all.”
