UFC Legend Mark Coleman is breathing on his own and talking to his family… just days after he was airlifted to a hospital with serious injuries sustained while rescuing his parents from a house fire.
Coleman’s daughter, Kenzieshared an emotional clip on Mark’s Instagram… just 2.5 days after the MMA great suffered smoke inhalation while saving his mother and father from a giant fire.
“I had to make a decision,” Coleman said of the fire in his hospital bed, “It was horrible enough! I couldn’t breathe!”
“I’m the happiest man in the world. I swear to God I’m so lucky! I can’t believe my parents are alive!”
Unfortunately, his dog, Hammer, died …and Coleman – who retired from MMA in 2013 – is completely devastated.
“I couldn’t find the Hammer!” Coleman said as he cried with his family.
A GoFundMe was created for Coleman’s loved ones, as his daughters will be taking time off from work to help him during his recovery. As of Thursday, more than $68,000 had been raised.
Stay safe, Marcos!
