The fact is that most elite fighters have their opponents hand picked. The main deciding factor usually being..."Who's going to make me more money". This is nothing new. Take, for example....well...this fight.
We can go through DLH's record and find ALOT of low risk opponents. Heck, if you think about it, even Mously was regarded as low risk. The first time he had just recently moved up from lightweight and had a tough fight with Wilfredo Rivera who pretty much walked through most of his shots. And in the seccond fight, Mously was 0-2-1 no contest in his last three fights.
My point is, this is no big deal and it is not new. Not for some time now.
