Not particularly, but I could see Olivares’ left hook breaking pretty much anybody up and Tapia had an excellent chin. UD is a good call

Olivares was superior in power, speed, range..in short, Olivares by late tko or unanimous decision.

I think Olivares would've taken a UD, but it would've been a hell of a fight. Tapia had balls, and would've held his own slugging it out with Olivares when his legs got tired, and he couldn't move as fast. Olivares was ultimately too good, and too strong, but Tapia would've made a hell of a fight of it.
