"Mamute". That's what they call Jair de Oliveira, and is part of the UFC light heavyweight division's deep end, fighting out of Brazil — 7 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
On the feet he's a problem: 3.98 significant strikes a minute at 60% accuracy, and 67% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him.
He's coming off a loss to Rafael Tobias. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
