Persecute? 
I wasn't the only one persecuting Oscar when that fight was made. Maybe you forgot--or maybe you weren't on message boards then or maybe you just bought into the hype. But no one thought that was a huge risk; an impressive fight, or anything of the sort PRIOR.
EDIT
And LOL @ Shane had the balls to step to Vernon. What's all this hindsight?? Shane was a heavy favorite over Forrest too. Now it was a big risk? Why? Because of what happened in the amateurs??? WTF? Would Kostya Tszyu have been a huge risk for Forrest as a pro? He beat him up in the amateurs, right?
