Frederic Sinistra has died from Covid complications after he discharged himself from the hospital.
The anti-vaxxer kickboxing champion died at his home in Ciney, Belgium, after deciding to treat the “little virus” himself at home.
The 41-year-old, known as The Undertaker, was forced to get medical help by his coach back in November. He shared pictures of himself in a hospital bed in intensive care breathing through an oxygen tube. Soon, the three-time world champion discharged himself from the hospital and decided to treat himself with oxygen at home.
It did not work and his death was announced by his partner in a Facebook post.
“From the bottom of my heart thank you all for your support and all your wonderful tributes to my husband,” she wrote. “My husband was a generous man with a big heart who wanted to help others no matter what.”

The athlete had previously shared a video where he could be seen struggling to breathe, saying in the caption he had “no time to waste with lazy people”. He then said in other posts that the “little virus” will not stop him.
Sinistra was last active online on December 13 but died later in the month after going into cardiac arrest.
