Mark Coleman is one of the pioneers in mixed martial arts. The family man, who has been a fighter for many years, is now critically ill after an admirable act.
Coleman was able to save his parents in Ohio when a house fire broke out. The former UFC Heavyweight Champion ran back into the house for a third attempt, this time trying to rescue his dog. He had earlier woken up his father to warn him of the fire.
Mark Coleman passed out from smoke inhalation during his heroics. The 59-year old was airlifted from the burning house by a number of fire departments.

Wes Sims is a friend of mine and a former MMA competitor. He opened up in a Facebook post.
Sims said, “I am a firm believer in prayer’s power.” “I sent a few photos of Mark Coleman’s current condition to my family and friends.”
“I know Mark, if he could talk he’d say film this sh*t Wes. “We are going viral!”
