At least they sanctioned it. The NSAC (you know, the same guys that let 0-0 McG get in with Floyd) wouldn't even let Ward fight the guy he picked, Murdoch

First, this statement is so false it's laughable. Wade is a good fighter and is legitimately top20 in the division. He's no worse than Dierry Jean (Crawford), Eric Molina (AJ) or Tommy Karpency (Stevenson). And he's INFINITELY better than the actual mismatches that occurred recently, for example Lara/Foreman (90th ranked), Zurdo/Bursak (70th ranked) or Ward/Brand (40th ranked from 1 division lower)
Second, stop referring to mandatory defenses as "matchmaking". Trying to hold a mandatory defense against the champion just paints you as a complete moron.
Third, what made Salka-Garcia an awful fight was the weight disparity. That fight much closer to Ward/Brand or Canelo/Khan than Golovkin/Wade.Comment
This fight was such an embarrassment to the sport.
