Been doing some research into WBO rules,& why Ortiz was upgraded to #1 rank despite Porter not getting his mando shot.
Well it turns out that because Bud is the "Super" champ wheras Andrade is the world champ.
Wbo rules allow Bud to avoid mandos where as world champs like Andrade cannot as easily.(This & only this is responsible for Porter not being able to just force the fight,& this is why no mandatory has been ordered which in turn means Porter cannot file a form to go to purse bid (he has to be declared mando 1st for that) & this is why Andrade had back to back Mando ordered but Bud has going on 2 yrs not & still has not. )
Furthermore it turns out that the WBO made Ortiz v Hooker be for the WBO international title which Was vacant. That & only that was responsible for Ortiz getting installed as #1 contender over Porter who was then automatically demoted.(& This is why no mando has still been ordered,Ortiz has to wait like Porter was)
The reason that Bud is allowed special privileges is because he was already unified champ at lower weights as per WBO rules he was made Super Champion. That means he is allowed sort of a WBO version of the franchise title in the sense he doesn't have same mando commitments.
I will be posting proof(Wbo Rules,Link to why Ortiz was upgraded etc.) in a few minutes to prove everything I said was correct & rumour's going around are not.
