Seems like the 20 pound weight advantage will be tough to overcome?

Liv is big but it means nothing if he just can't fight, and based on looks alone I'd say he just can't fight.

This seems very naive to me.
Please enlighten me with the correlation between looks and fighting skills?

Rich people doing stuff.

I put my money on Olivier only cause he seems like a pretty crazy focused dude.

Eh, if it was boxing it's one thing but there have been pro fights with 100 lbs weight differences where the smaller dude creamed the goliath. It's just not that big of an issue compared to boxing where 5-10 lbs is an advantage.

pretty boy face?

The dude has a caveman jaw

alvarado couldn't hit hard enough to knock him out if he had a hammer imo

Weight just isnt that much of a factor unless you're playing in the wussie sport where you have pillows strapped to your hands called boxing.
