Cris Lencioni, a skilled MMA fighter competing in Bellator, finds himself in the ICU facing his toughest battle yet. After experiencing a cardiac arrest earlier this month, his family shared the news on Monday. In an effort to provide support during this difficult time, Lencioni’s family has set up a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds.
The unexpected cardiac arrest occurred on June 8th, which is especially surprising considering Lencioni’s age of 28 and his peak physical condition. Despite this setback, Lencioni’s family remains optimistic and believes in his strength, determination, and resilience. They have witnessed him overcome many challenges in life, instilling faith in his ability to conquer any obstacle.
Known for his entertaining persona in the MMA world, Lencioni has made a significant impact on those around him. His character is described as lively, filled with laughter, and always spreading positive energy. Moreover, Lencioni is dedicated to working with children, going above and beyond to ensure their inclusion in tournaments and providing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training in his gym, regardless of their financial limitations. Mentoring struggling kids and supporting them through tough times is a cause dear to his heart.
Former MMA star Chael Sonnen expressed his thoughts and prayers for Lencioni’s family during this challenging time.
Lencioni, originally from Portland, Oregon, has been making waves in the Bellator featherweight division. Riding a four-fight winning streak, his most recent victory came in April when he defeated Blake Smith via submission.
As we wait for updates on Lencioni’s condition, the MMA community and fans alike rally behind him, hoping for a full and speedy recovery.
