    What are some matchups you'd be super excited to see that don't qualify as marquee matchups? These would be matchups nobody's been clamoring for but that you think would make for exciting and compelling fights.

    Some of mine:

    Ortiz vs. Castano
    Matias vs. Prograis
    Crawford vs. Lara

    Why on Earth do you wanna see Bud fight a 130-year-old Lara?

    It's a proven fact Crawfords toughest opponents have been communists

    The Lara of 10 years ago would be an extremely dangerous matchup for Crawford.

    Not the geriatric Lara of today.

    In DoubleL defense, Lara looked very impressive in his last few fights but it's hard to really gauge how much gas he has left in the tank when he s dominating out a journeyman once every year.

    I just think it'd be a good styles matchup.
