Joe Rogan, who’s in his late 50s, is as fit as one can be. So there may not be anyone better to take advice from regarding ways to stay in shape. It seems as if the UFC’s first-ever heavyweight champion, Mark Coleman, took one of his advice and ran with it. He recently shared a story on Instagram about undergoing cryotherapy. However, it was not an easy task.

The innovator of the ground-and-pound technique was visibly having a hard time staying calm while the therapy was freezing his body. Moreover, he even let out some cries of discomfort. Coleman said, “Cryotherapy. I am back in. Hawk it later… I can’t take it.”
It may not have been an easy task, but his unwavering commitment to getting fit was there to see. After all, he is going to make his return to fighting at 58 years old. Let’s check out the details on that front.
‘The Hammer’ will make his boxing debut on October 14th
Mark Coleman, who boasts an MMA record of 16 wins and 10 losses, hasn’t competed for almost 13 years. Hence, he earlier approached former boxing world champion and icon Mike Tyson for his help as he underwent his body transformation process. Coleman claimed that ‘Iron’ was his idol and wanted his help to prepare for his upcoming fight on October 14th against Montell Griffin, who has vast experience in boxing.

However, Mike Tyson did not respond to Coleman’s plea. It could be because of his commitments with his podcast, ‘Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson’ and other media appearances. Regardless of that, the UFC Hall of Famer continues to train and prepare all by himself.
