The HW division was a much different landscape than the current FW, but Eilers had just fought for a title and they were trying their hardest to push Mir back up to a title fight to unify the titles. Plus Vera was probably the smallest guy in the division at the time.
The whole UFC has improved. Vera was probably a top 5 striker in the whole organization then training under Rob Kamen, so its no surprise he got KOs.
