The most recent statistic: UFC veteran and TUF 1 alum Diego Sanchez. In a recent tweet, the 39-year-old fighter briefly described his ordeal. He also took a shot at loud-talking welterweight contender Colby Covington, who had repeatedly talked disparagingly about the threat of the disease.
Shitting, coughing, pukin, constant hot cold fevers, pain in every joint, migraines, 5 days no sleep and constantly short of breath.
