    What are the next huge fights that should happen...

    ...not involving Mayweather, Pacquiao, Cotto, Canelo, Golovkin, Klitschko? To be clear, fights involving Cotto, Canelo, Golovkin don't necessarily mean big fights.
    So which pairing or matchup among the current top fighters can be made realistically?

          Joshua vs Wilder
          I like Usyk vs Gassiev, but some may not see that as a big fight
          Ward vs Stevenson
          Ward vs WBSS 200lb winner
          Lara vs Andrade vs Charlo vs Lubin vs Hurd vs Castano (154 needs to get figured the f#ck out so lotsa fights there to make)
          Thurman vs Spence
          Mikey vs Crawford
          Mikey vs Loma
          Loma vs Rigo
          Loma vs Berchlet
          LSC vs Frampton III
          LSC vs Valdez

            Crawford wants Thurman, but Keith would be seen as ducking Spence if he expresses any interest in Crawford knowing that Errol is with PBC and Bud is not. Frankly, I don't know which fight he thinks would be the tougher one.

            Let's consider Porter vs Garcia huge (not exactly in the Glovkin/Cnelo size), but they're still among the top. So let's set this as standard.
