Prayers for Mark Coleman

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. Iā€™m 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 thatā€™s an issue.

The truth of the matter is there are some guys in this sport that MMA owes an unpayable debt to. Itā€™s 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 Iā€™m making ridiculous demands, is it too much to expect Fedor to come visit mark in the hospital with his glorious sweater?

Well said. While the UFC is certainly under no obligation to do any of this, Iā€™ve 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 heā€™s given PURPOSE is awesome to watch.

Like you said, create a job and give the guy something to contribute, and he seems like heā€™d attack it with everything heā€™s got.

I really hope they do. I understand that itā€™s a business and they donā€™t HAVE TO do anything, but I really hope they do.

He is one of my favorite fighters of all time. He is a true hero, along with his dog (RIP).

Hi Everyone, Kenzie here. Itā€™s 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.
