Mark Coleman ruled his era in the UFC with his ferocious fighting style. As the first-ever UFC heavyweight champion, he proved to be a fearsome foe, defeating the promotion’s then Superfight Champion, Dan Severn, in the opening round of their bout at the UFC 12: Judgement Day in 1997. Since then, ‘The Hammer’ has become a legendary figure in the sport, known widely for his aggressive fighting style. Even after nearly 13 years since retiring from the sport, Coleman is not looking to stop. The 58-year-old UFC Hall of Famer is still not putting up with any excuse for age to catch up with him and missing an action.

Recently, he took to his Instagram to share a pivotal update on his life, revealing that he had sparred for the first time in years. In his inspirational message to his followers, he urged them to keep pushing through despite the challenges.

He wrote, “First live spar 12 yrs didn’t last long he drew first blood 45 seconds in I walked away bcause I can’t go slow haha yes that’s my speed 4niw it was plenty today. Carnivore diet and the 9 ancestral tenets are treating me real good down 40ish lbs . Thx @liverking for the huge push 👊🏽.

However, amidst the attempt to spread positivity through his post, Mark Coleman still encountered a brash fan who tried to ruffle the UFC veteran’s feathers. But ‘The Hammer’ remained unfazed and took the high road instead. He gave the person with the best possible response he could muster that shut him up for good.
