Over the weekend, Ric Flair (along with Hulk Hogan) took part in a Q and A session in Atlantic City (per Uproxx) moderated by Jimmy Hart.
During the appearance, Flair was asked about Harley Race and stated that he was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Flair reportedly said the diagnosis was terminal.
According to a new statement by David Marquez, while Race was indeed diagnosed with lung cancer recently, the diagnosis wasn’t terminal and he is still being treated.
“I’ve just spoke to Harley Race’s family and yes he has been diagnosed with Lung Cancer but it’s not terminal. He’s being treated and supervised by his doctors. He is still very active in @worldleaguewlw and appreciates everyone’s concerns.”
