Battling for His Life, Mark Coleman’s Daughters Launch Gofundme Page as UFC Legend’s Family Desperately Seeks Help for Ailing Ex-champ

The UFC world had quite a shock hearing about the unfortunate incident that fell upon the UFC Legend, Mark Coleman, and his family around 2:00 am on Tuesday. The house of Coleman’s parents caught on fire which resulted in tragedy for the family.

Though both of Coleman’s parents were unharmed due to the retired fighter’s heroism, the same can’t be said for the fighter and the family dog. Coleman helped his parents out of the house and went back in to save their family dog, Hammer. This led to him inhaling too much smoke, rendering him unconscious inside the burning house along with his dog. Coleman was airlifted to Toledo where he still remains in a medically induced coma. Meanwhile, Coleman’s daughters have reached out to the MMA community to help the family in any way possible.

A Twitter post by “@mmakings” recently put out a tweet helping the word get out, that wrote, “Mark Coleman’s daughters have launched a GoFundMe for the UFC Hall of Famer who was hospitalized after he saved his parents from an Ohio house fire”. 

McKenzie and Morgan Coleman, the daughters of the UFC legend, sent a very heartfelt message to the MMA community, sharing their grief over the world. On the GoFundMe page, the sisters gave an insight into how the family was dealing with the traumatic incident.

The daughters of Mark Coleman are saddened by the loss of the UFC legend’s dog and best friend. However, they are still grateful to have their father alive despite the severe injuries. They explained that the funds would help the UFC legend’s medical and living expenses as well as support Morgan Coleman and McKenzie Coleman, as they would be taking time off from work to take care of their father. They also gave an insight into Coleman’s health in their message.

Update on the UFC legend’s health

Mark Coleman had been airlifted to Toledo yesterday after almost losing his life to the fire that engulfed his parent’s house. Other than that, there wasn’t much information on the health of Coleman, except for him being in a medically induced coma.

However, as per what the family wrote on the GoFundMe page for Coleman, we can figure out that Coleman’s lungs were what took the most damage in the fire. The family in their message to the MMA community wrote, “He is needing lots of prayer to get his lungs clear.” Luckily as of now, no complications from his past surgery have not been mentioned.

All we can do for the UFC Hall of Famer now is to pay for their family, and his recovery. That’s the least we can do for the hero and his family in their time of need.
