UFC Hall of Fame fighter, Randy Couture, suffered a heart attack on Wednesday and is currently in intensive care, TMZ Sports reports.

Couture, 56, walked himself to a local hospital following a workout at Jay Glazer’s Unbreakable MMA gym in Los Angeles after recognizing that something was off. He was immediately admitted and began treatment.

Although the three-time UFC heavyweight champion currently resides intensive care, the good news is that Couture is expected to make a full recovery.

Couture sports a professional MMA record of 19-11, last fighting at the age of 46 in a KO loss to Lyoto Machida at UFC 129. And while he went out on a down note, Couture has victories over the likes of Chuck Liddell, Tito Ortiz, Vitor Belfort and Mark Coleman on his resume.

Following his MMA career, Couture has regularly appeared in movies (The Expendables 1, 2 & 3) and on television (The Unit, Hawaii 5-0, Ballers and Dancing with the Stars).
