Klitschko and Joshua are ranked higher than parker and ruiz in real ratings such as the ring magazine. The alphabets rankings are always a bit of a joke.
Yes it's a case of not following their own rules but klit-aj is as close to a heavyweight super fight as we have right now, parker-ruiz is just two prospects facing off. It's kind of like Joshua v Martin all over again.
Klitschko deserves a chance to get back his belts that he defended for over a decade. he's far more deserving of a title shot than ANYONE in the division.
As long as parker gets his shot at the winner I'm fine with it
