Mark Coleman, the first UFC Heavyweight Champion who also wrestled for New Japan Pro Wrestling, Inoki Genome Federation and other companies in Japan is currently hospitalized after rescuing his family from a house fire in Freemont, Ohio and collapsing due to smoke inhalation.
Coleman's daughter Morgan wrote the following:
"As many know, our dad was involved in a house fire early this morning along with his parents and beloved dog, hammer. He managed to carry both of his parents out of the house but despite his best efforts was not able to save hammer. He was life-flighted to the hospital where he is currently battling for his life after this heroic act.
Our father has always been our hero and means the world to us. He is and always will be a fighter. The strongest snd bravest man I know. Please continue to pray for him and our family during this extremely difficult time. We will miss our sweet hammer so deeply.
Thank you for all the love and support. Hammer house for life ????"
Everyone at PWInsider.com sends our best wishes to the Coleman family.
