    Not much, but if your a top lvel fighter you gotta fight these type of fighters sometimes.

    A guy who got schooled by Mauricio Herrera, and was losing against Paez Jr. until he KO'd him late.

    Top Rank running out of options.

    TR clearly has a working relationship with the WBO. Kavaliauskas vs Arriaza was supposedly to determine Crawford´s next mandatory. Which is just BS.
    TR is trying to play the "he is the mandatory" card here.

    Everyone else is with the PBC.

    This. They have none.

    And yes, Top Rank owns the WBO.

    EK is a fringe top 10 guy at best for me right now.

    It's not like that kind of fighter ever looks bad on a resume, but it's more of the same for Bud and not a top caliber name we all want to see him tested against. I don't think besting him tells us much about Bud we don't already know.
