Coach Reveals Mysterious Paralysis Haunted Charles Oliveira After First Max Holloway Fight

Diego Lima said the lightweight’s first-round TKO loss vs. Holloway in 2015 ended with a frightening, unexplained paralysis that stalled his travel. “Nobody knows what actually happened,” he said, adding that the hospital wouldn’t clear Oliveira to leave because doctors couldn’t pinpoint the cause. The coach said Oliveira “still had that paralysis.” Oliveira is set for a rematch in March.
