So true.
My advice also would be don't call out a fighter that was once elite(even if it would be 20 pounds above his best weight) if you have never beaten anyway good.
Yes. A has been world champion/world class fighter will often beat the hell out of a never was youngster.
A bit like when Mike Mollo got thrashed by Andrew Golota, or Abraham Okine challenged Shannon Briggs and got a horrible beating.
In any case I looked up Oliveira's record on boxrec and he had beaten some guys with decent records, a couple of of his opponents had 25-4 records or thereabouts. Also Oliveira was the much bigger man as he had fought as high as 165, and the kid was 22 years old, 14 years younger than tit sucker ! (Popo).
