The ruling applies to WBO 'Super' Champions (like Usyk or Canelo), I believe.
ELIGIBILITY TO BE CONSIDERED FOR DESIGNATION AS THE MANDATORY CHALLENGER IN HIGHER OR LOWER DIVISION.
If requested by a Super Champion, the Championship Committee may designate the Super Champion as the mandatory challenger for the immediate higher or lower division.Comment

Pulev has been decent heavyweight for many years. he has many fights in division and only 1 loss against future HOF.
Usyk is nobody in division, he has 1 fight against old club fighter.
But I understand, division needs Usyk hype until Joshua stops him. Usyk is there for Joshua fight only anyway.Comment

Yes, there is much more hype around Usyk, than there is for Pulev! A lot of the blame falls on Pulev! He couldn't even do his part:Pulev has been decent heavyweight for many years. he has many fights in division and only 1 loss against future HOF.

Kubrat Pulev Decisions Rydell Booker, But Fails To Impress
"Kubrat Pulev didn't exactly seal it with a kiss this time around.
Returning to the ring for the first time since inappropriate behavior following his last bout, the mandatory heavyweight contender in waiting kept his place in line but failed to impress in a slow-paced unanimous decision win over Rydell Booker."
Kubrat Pulev didn't exactly seal it with a kiss this time around. Returning to the ring for the first time since inappropriate behavior following his last bout, the mandatory heavyweight contender in waiting kept his place in line but failed to impress in a slow-paced unanimous decision win over Rydell Booker. Scores were 98-92 twice and 99-91 in favor of Pulev in their ESPN+ streamed heavyweight battle Saturday evening at Chukchansi Park in Fresno, California.
That's unacceptable, especially since Booker is a nobody!Comment

Look, I understand your passion, but Usyk has ONE fight in division.
Don`t pretend like Usyk deserves it more.Comment
