A few months ago, the world of MMA and beyond was left anxious about the condition of Mark Coleman- the living legend of the UFC and the first heavyweight champion of the American Promotion. The MMA superstar had been hospitalized due to heavy smoke intoxication. The cause? The daredevil risked his life to save his parents from a fire that broke out in their home, not far from Toledo, Ohio, in the United States. He did so, as reported by the local media before the firefighters arrived.

But when it seemed like the troubles ended for Coleman after he got discharged from the hospital, he revealed that he had to be re-admitted due to a septic infection in his hip. Probably caused by his injuries sustained during the heroic deed. Being a through-and-through superhero, he has overcome his hardships again. Coleman released a video on his Instagram announcing that he has finally been released from the hospital after his 6th surgery.

In the caption of the video, he shared the major news with his fans. He wrote, “Leaving the hospital after surgery number 6. I’m feeling great and the surgery went really well. Thank you all so much for your kind words and prayers. I’m ready for whatever life throws at me nothing can keep me down or stop me. Gods plan always works out. I feel blessed to be able to receive the medical care I do.”

Further, he thanked the medical staff for all the help that he had received. “Thank you to all the medical staff. I will follow the rules because I’m ready to get back on the grind and be done with this injury once and for all. Fear nothing. If you feel the fear do it anyways!!! Sober is cool. Carnivore. 9 ancestral tenets. Hammer house 4 life who the fuck is in? I love you all 🔨”

His followers truly rejoiced over this major news. One of which was none other than Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. The WWE superstar and Hollywood icon has truly become an MMA fan after being cast to play two-time UFC heavyweight champion Mark Kerr in his biography named ‘The Smashing Machine.’ In the comment section of Coleman’s post, the Brahma Bull shared his well wishes with the UFC legend. He wrote, “Stay strong my brother 🔨.” However, Johnson wasn’t the only well-wisher in the comments, as fans too shared their happiness over the major news.

As soon as Coleman released the video, fans were quick to share their happiness over the major news. Letting Coleman know that he is loved by many and that the MMA Universe is glad to see the champion be much healthier now. “You don’t got to impress us or anybody brother, just take this time to actually relax and reflect. God bless the Hammer House,” and, “Speedy recovery brother !! The king of ground & pound 🔨🔨.” Many truly are inspired by the former MMA fighter.  Coleman truly is still overcoming all odds despite being 59 years old. “👏👏👏👏👏stud and your a huge inspiration to us all🔥🔥🔥”

While some fans couldn’t help but be amazed by the fact that Coleman is still in great condition despite all his health problems. For the unaware, Coleman was earlier hospitalized back in 2020 after suffering a heart attack. They discovered a blockage in an artery, something that they had to operate on. So seeing Coleman all energized truly left these two fans inspired. As they wrote in the comments, “Let’s go 🔨👏! I hope this will be the final surgery and you heal quickly!🔨🔨🔨4-Life🔨🔨🔨” and “This guy has more surgeries than I get the mail and he STILL works out more AND POSTS IT more than I just work out occasionally! I gotta step my game up.”

It would be interesting to see if Coleman soon makes an appearance in the UFC. He last appeared at UFC 300 back in April as a special guest at the event alongside his daughter. In fact, Coleman was the one who put the BMF title around Max Holloway after the MMA fighter’s win against Justin Gaethje. What do you think? Do you wish to see Coleman in the UFC again?
