Notable UFC alumnus and “The Ultimate Fighter 1” cast member Chris Leben has been hospitalized for breathing issues following a battle with COVID-19.
In an Instagram post Sunday, Leben revealed his six-day-and-counting hospitalization in San Diego, shed some vague light on his issues, and asked for “positive vibes.” The write-up was accompanied by an image of Leben’s legs, in a hospital gown, 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, 41, has not given an update since the post.
Leben is the second member of the original cast of the monumental reality series “The Ultimate Fighter” to be hospitalized for post-COVID issues. “TUF 1” middleweight winner Diego Sanchez was open about his battle with COVID-induced health issues in November that landed him in the hospital. Sanchez, 40, is seemingly doing much better now and even has a March fight scheduled against Kevin Lee under the Eagle FC banner.
