    The injury to your knee was only after the operation by the pressure received leg in air travel, are you able to run?

    It sounds more like he felt pain due to cabin pressure while traveling. That's not unusual after surgery and it's getting better now. You are making more of this than is the case...he did not re-injure it in training as you said. He flew home after surgery and of course it was not 100%...that statement was not from his training camp or he wouldn't even be fighting on Sat if so.
    I can't remember the exact specifics, but it was more serious than that. In some other interview, he said something in his knee, something started leaking (I can't remember what he was referring to), and it got infected. I don't think it was that recent though and he time for it to recover some before training camp began.

      He probably had a drainage tube in his knee for a week and got an infection...that would have been back in Oct or near then. That happens and is not an re-injury...a week of antibiotics and it would be gone. I can't see him fighting if he didn't have a proper training camp and is ready for it...I'm sure he's fine.

        Not a good sign at all considering his age and injuries. Not good at all. I'm very interested to see how his mobility is this weekend.

              Oh, I think he's probably fit and healthy enough to fight (he wouldn't otherwise), but it doesn't mean the knee still isn't a problem and that it could use some more time to heal.
