Not defending the dude, just thought his posts were weird with how he operates.
A man who was already a living legend added to his legend by saving his parentsā lives then going back into a burning house to try to save his dog. He then further added to his legendary status by defying death in the process.
WTF is he planning as an encore?
Even though dogs have great survival instincts, they can still get confused in a chaotic situation. Iām sure there was lots of smoke and heat and shit on fire, not to mention people yelling. The dog probably died cowering in a corner somewhere.
It also could be that the way out simply became blocked. Who knows?
Once Mark is on the other side of this can the UFC finally give him one of those $300-$500k a year fake jobs.
Make him the head of wrestling coach hiring for the training centers and ambassador blahā¦blahā¦. Make sobriety part of the job if thatās an issue.
The truth of the matter is there are some guys in this sport that MMA owes an unpayable debt to. Itās a short list 20ish guys, but the Hammer is for sure on it.
The UFC is in a position to offer make work jobs to these guys and they absolutely should.
While Iām making ridiculous demands, is it too much to expect Fedor to come visit mark in the hospital with his glorious sweater?
hahahahaahahahaa Love It
Glad to see heās conscious and off the ventilator. Got pretty dusty watching that video his daughters posted
What a man. Get well as fast as possible my man.

Well said. While the UFC is certainly under no obligation to do any of this, Iāve really taken a love to Coleman over this past year or so following him on social media. Seeing how much he cares for those around him and how he embraces and flourishes when heās given PURPOSE is awesome to watch.
Like you said, create a job and give the guy something to contribute, and he seems like heād attack it with everything heās got.
I really hope they do. I understand that itās a business and they donāt HAVE TO do anything, but I really hope they do.
What a legend! So happy Mark is okā¦ That man is an absolute warrior.
He is one of my favorite fighters of all time. He is a true hero, along with his dog (RIP).
Update:
Hi Everyone, Kenzie here. Itās been a whirlwind of a week. Yesterday my Dad was released from St. Vincents Hospital in Toledo where they thought he was stable enough to go home. We were only home in Columbus for about an hour when he started to have numbness in his arms and chest pain. My Sister, Morgan and I rushed him back to the hospital where they determined he has developed pneumonia. Despite all of this, he is still the same positive, spunky, spitfire self just as I am sure you can imagine from the video below. He wants to Thank you all for the support and love you have shown him, and us during this extremely difficult time. I have read him your comments and he is so overwhelmed with joy. He is getting rest and we promise to take the best care of him. He is the true definition of a fighter and defines strength like no other. He loves all of you so much. He always says without his supporters he is nothing. It feels good for us to be home with our Daddy. Please continue to pray for complete healing.

Also, why isnāt this thread a sticky at the top?
Pneumonia sucks but after everything Markās been through thatāll be his easiest win.
āHe is the true definition of a fighter.ā
