Mark Coleman has been released from the hospital after nearly dying in a huge house fire last week … the UFC legend provided an update to his many fans just days after saving his mom and dad.
“God is great 👊❤️🙏,” the 59-year-old retired fighter said on Monday via IG video caption, writing, “I am healing up very well.”
“My lungs are sore. My eyes are burnt but I’m very much alive and well. I feel so blessed it’s in my higher power’s hands. He wants me to move forward today and I am.”

Coleman — who was hospitalized with smoke inhalation after saving his parents from a house fire in Toledo, Ohio, early Tuesday morning — thanked all his fans for their prayers, especially for his late dog, Hammer, who sadly perished in the blaze.
Mark also said he hopes the incident encourages people to make the most of life … before it’s too late.

“I can’t thank you enough. I’m just grateful. I’ll continue to motivate people to move forward and be a better version of themselves. You never know when you’re gonna need it, so let’s go. Let’s start today. Tomorrow’s not promised. Get moving!”

BTW, his loyal fans stepped up in a big way, including financially, making over 2,600 donations to a GoFundMe to help with medical expenses … raising over $121k!
Speedy recovery, Mark!
