His social media showed him on a spin bike and the gym’s name could be seen below.
Witnesses say the gunman was lying in wait for Baghi as left the Real Club Pádel in Marbella, Spain, last Thursday (2 Jan).
It is believed the first bullet cut through Baghi’s buttocks and grazed his penis, while the second struck his anus.
The third bullet entered his left leg, according to the media in his native Germany.
Baghi was bleeding profusely but managed to haul himself back into the gym, only for the masked, black-clad assailant to follow him.
He continued shooting but it is believed that his gun jammed, possibly saving the bodybuilder’s life.
Baghi was taken to a local hospital with a tourniquet around his leg and he discharged himself later that day.
He is expected to make a complete recovery with no lasting damage.
However, two of the bullets will likely remain in his groin area forever, as it is too risky to try to extract them.
It is possible that the thin bullets were not intended to take the bodybuilder’s life but to punish him instead.
His assailant fled the scene on a motorcycle and there were no reports of an arrest at the time of writing.
Baghi is described in reports as a former MMA fighter and an ex-Hells Angel enforcer.
He is believed to have been forced out of the outlaw motorcycle club due to disagreements with his superior.
During his time there, he allegedly threatened people and beat them up, making enemies in the process.
Baghi – who is of Iranian origin – boasts 77,000 Instagram followers.
He uses his page to flaunt his life of luxury, including flash cars, blingy watches and jet-set trips around the world.
Baghi – who reportedly lives between Cologne, Dubai, and Marbella – is said to have been targeted by a gunman before in 2021.
His last pro fight took place in 2018 and ended in victory by TKO, as reported by Need To Know.
