Chris
Leben has been hospitalized for nearly a week due in San Diego
to issues stemming from COVID-19.
The UFC veteran revealed in an Instagram post on Sunday that he had
difficulty breathing after catching the virus. The post showed an
image of Leben’s legs in a hospital gown while hooked up to a
monitor.
“So I’ve been in the hospital since Tuesday,” Leben wrote. “I went
in after a cough and shortness of breath I developed after Covid.
I’m not one to bellyache to the world. But if you haven’t seen me
at the gym or around that is why. And if you can shoot some
positive vibes my way other than that I don’t really wanna say much
until we know exactly what’s going on.”
Leben, who competed on Season 1 of “The Ultimate Fighter,” hasn’t
competed in MMA since a loss to Uriah Hall at
UFC 168 in December 2013. The 41-year-old known as “The Crippler”
has competed multiple times in bare-knuckle boxing since then, most
recently defeating Quentin
Henry at a BKFC event in February 2021.
