Oxygen will combine with anything that is flammable and help to increase the volume and intensity of any fire. Nitrogen is inert, so will only explode if kept under high pressure i.e. no flames.

you don't know what oxygen combines with. In a pure oxygen environment all kinds things will ignite and burn explosively. Many material considered non flamable will burn in a pure oxygen environment. Were people ever allowed to smoke in an oxygen tent. Don't know what happened to the Appollo astronauts?? What do you think you know about chemistry?? What does oxygen combine with. Iron carbon hydrogen nitrogen and so many combinations. And in a pure oxygen environment it combines explosively.
