UFC Featherweight Lerone Murphy Hospitalized After ‘Near Death Experience’

Undefeated UFC featherweight Lerone Murphy was hospitalized after a cycling accident led to a “near death experience.”

The Manchester Top Team representative posted a photo on Instagram of himself in a hospital bed while providing an account of the incident.

“Ffs I can’t catch a break,” Murphy wrote. “Another near death experience. Yesterday while cycling, an oncoming car turned right without looking and we collided at speed. Which caused a nasty head wound. The ambulance took 45 minutes to arrive which nearly caused me to bleed out. I’m here still breathing for a greater purpose clearly.
