It was back in 2023 that Olivarez kicked off his impressive streak, first with a stunning upset victory at the Combat Jiu-Jitsu Bantamweight world championship – where he secured submissions against all four of his opponents to claim the title.
Shortly thereafter, he dominated the under 66kg division at the ADCC North American East Coast Trials; triumphing over seven seasoned competitors such as notable veterans Gianni Grippo and Ethan Crelinsten.
