How is Renato Moicano that good? Does it make sense?

It puzzles me how Moicano had such an easy time against BSD. We have to be honest here and tell it like it was, he made Benoît look like he didn't even have the basics of fighting.
It looked like a seasoned, professional fighter matched up with somebody who dipped his toes in the amateur waters for the first time. Two very different levels.

But for some reason, these other top names in the division doesn't have it in them to exploit Saint Denis' lack of awareness when he's trying to overwhelm you.

At first, after their fight, my suspicion was that BSD must be overhyped. Too unpolished for ranked guys. But when he's going through Ruffy, Dariush, Hooker now the only explanation
that remains is Renato Moicano truly being elite. On a clearly higher level than these guys when it comes to IQ and to find what works.

Is that it, or was Renato somehow just lucky in how much better he looked? Thoughts?
BSD's toughness makes up for some glaring holes in his game. Money Moicano was able to expoit them. Hooker had his moments but on the ground he looked lost.
 
Moicano is a very solid fighter and has a lot of experience. I know he didn't perform in the Islam fight, but you have to remember he was a last second replacement. Apart from that the only other time he got beaten easily was Aldo
