(On the topic of painful leg injuries...) We all saw lightweight Charles Oliveira get dropped and finished by Cub Swanson Saturday night at UFC 152. What we didn't see, according to cut man Jacob "Stitch" Duran, was Oliveira injure his knee just before fighting Swanson while warming up in the locker room. "I do know that in preparation for going out there, warming up, he twisted his knee," Duran told MMA Junkie. Duran also said that Oliveira needed assistance walking up the steps into the Octagon to fight Swanson. Junkie could not immediately reach Oliveira or representatives of the fighter but pointed out that "medical suspensions made public...on the Association of Boxing Commission's official record keeper, mixedmartialarts.com, stated that Oliveira has drawn an indefinite term and needs a CT scan or MRI to be cleared to fight."Martinsh Egle Eric Butterbean Esch Efrain Escudero Rashad Evans Urijah Faber
