Following a crash at a stock car track, former UFC fighter Randy Couture, 62, was airlifted to a burn center in the Kansas City area on Tuesday, according to multiple reports.
He is expected to make a full recovery, his spokesperson told MMA Junkie.
Couture had recently been preparing to make his National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) debut this year. Couture has long been a motorcycling enthusiast and had begun earning his competitive license in the hopes of racing stock cars in official races before the end of 2025.
Couture suffered first- and second-degree burns, other trauma-related injuries, and smoke inhalation.
It is unclear what actually caused the crash.
