I think he looks in great shape and looks very good training considering the life he has lived outside of the ring. He looks a lot happier and healthier and feel him training, finding that old fire is great for him and he does need something like this just not this exactly.
I hope he don't get hurt cause Vitor is a big guy and I don't mean next to Oscar I mean he is a damn unit and literally 6' and probably walks around at 210 shredded. He can crack at the weight especially if he is roided to the gills and I imagine there probably isn't any testing for this circus event.
I don't normally worry for a boxer vs an MMA fighter or whatever but Oscar could have taken a less dangerous fight than this.
Vitor has a boxing background he boxed amateur in Brazil and had a pro bout and has trained alongside Pedro Diaz for a number of years.
Whoa didn't know Vitor had a background in boxing. If I remember right Vitor was known as a "striker" in MMA.
I plan on watching just bc it's Oscar also. He might just get pummeled! Lol
Glad he looks in shape, he does look happier.
According to an interview I just seen with Oscar apparently Vitor almost made the olympic boxing team.
Granted the standards are very low in Brazil but yh he's certainly been involved in boxing.
Oscar is a fighter from head to toe, and he is a HOF boxer at the highest level, I don't think he will have any trouble winning, the thing is the size, these boxers are giving these MMA guys a massive size advantage and that makes it a lot harder, Id be surprised if Oscar lost this based mainly on his pedigree and his fighting spirit.

A comeback fight after over a decade being retired, He might just get hurt or look a little sloppy at times form wise but I hope it does not mean he gets hurt at least severely etc because lets face it ring rust is very much real...
He hasn't fought in 13years and has been living a terrible lifestyle outside the ring, been in and out of rehab and is nearly 50.
Now he's coming back and taking on a 6' 210lb southpaw who will be roided up and can punch.
Oh Oscar!
