The good news: Bellator featherweight Chris Lencioni is out of intensive care. However, he faces a long and uncertain road to recovery. Lencioni, 28, went into cardiac arrest and had a heart attack June 8 while training at a gym in Spokane, Wash. His wife, Marca Lencioni, told MMA Fighting on Tuesday that an MRI revealed her husband also suffered brain damage. As a result, Cris is in a “state of disordered consciousness,” although he is awake and responsive. Video posted to MMA Fighting’s social media accounts showed medical professionals working with Cris as they tried to get him to react to things happening.
