CT Fletcher Sounds Off on ESPN Show Sports Center For Making Light of His Recent Heart Issues

CT Fletcher isn’t happy with ESPN.

For anyone in the bodybuilding and fitness industry, the story behind CT Fletcher and his recent battle with heart issues has been well documented. CT Fletcher himself has addressed his faithful fans keeping them up to date on his condition and how he almost lost his life after suffering another heart attack.


That’s what makes ESPN’s recent video clip featuring the famed powerlifter all the more tasteless.

In a recent episode of Sports Center, a clip of CT Fletcher was used to poke fun at the New England Patriots on their recent loss. While ESPN may have found the joke funny, one person who isn’t laughing is CT Fletcher himself.

The respected powerlifter went to social media to express his distaste on the recent clip that features CT Fletcher recounting his near death experience.
