This England team put on a stunning display to take 22 golds,10 silvers and seven bronzes to come fourth in the country table.
England coach Rob Taylor said Oliver has the heart of a lion, was impressed Oli never took his shirt off like his opponents because he’s "proud to wear his country’s flag with pride".
None of this would be possible without his trainer Luke Read and his stable mates at the Warriors Muay Thai Gym Hastings who he trains with.
