VIDEO | Mark Coleman seen at the gym just days after devastating house fire
Former UFC heavyweight champion Mark Coleman is already back in the gym.
‘The Hammer’ is one of the most beloved early UFC stars. However, Mark Coleman was unfortunately the victim of a terrible house fire last week. As many have already reported, the retired fighter’s dog Hammer, woke him up in the middle of the night to alert him. Thanks to the alert, Coleman was able to get his parents out of the home safely.
Sadly, the legend’s dog passed away as a result of the fire, and Mark Coleman himself spent days in the hospital. However, the former UFC champion showed his unbreakable spirit and recovered well enough to leave the hospital days after the fire. Now, it seems that the retired fighter is already back in the gym.
Earlier today, UFC welterweight contender Matt Brown released a video on Instagram. In the video, ‘The Immortal’ is seen in the cage with Mark Coleman, who flexed for the camera. Despite the terrible fire just a few days previous, the former champion is seemingly in great spirits.
Later, Coleman re-posted the picture to his own social media pages. With that, the heavyweight left a caption thanking fans for their support, and stating how grateful he was. Coleman added that while he’s still recovering, he’s hoping to get back into the gym routine soon.
