He began boxing at age 12 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. (rededoesporte.gov.br, 07 Jun 2018)

He had a friend who bragged that he could fight. Oliveira learned that his friend was boxing at a social project called 'Luta pela Paz' [Fighting for Peace] in Rio de Janeiro, so he started training there at different times to his friend. The idea was to develop himself, and then later challenge him. "I went there [to the social project], trained for a while, and when I believed I was ready, I found out that he had quit. But I enjoyed it so much that I stayed in the sport." (rededoesporte.gov.br, 07 Jun 2018)
