True.
But that was also the time when a 170-pound guy from Brazil defeated every opponent he faced (most of whom outweighed him) in several no-weight-limits, no-time-limits, nearly-no-rules televised fighting tournaments in which, on top of everything else, they had to fight several fights per evening.
