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.
