Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
The way I see it, the Ring want their "Belt" to be for the stand out best guy in the division. So they don't see no.1 v no.3 being good enough, because they feel no.2 has a squeak of beating no.1.
How would you feel if they classed no.1 as Wilder and no. 3 as Ortiz and decided that would be for the Ring belt? It's not inconceivable and would be as equally unfair.

I think the only time The Ring has accepted #1 vs #3 for the championship was Wlad vs Chagaev. The old editor updated the championship policy, it will be interesting to see if Dougie revisits them and makes any changes.

Is this fight going to be on Showtime? I still haven't heard anything yet.

Seems like it will be on Showtime, but I still haven't seen anything to that effect.

The Showtime deal is up after this fight, notice they didn't announce it's extended in that press release (which normally happens). Joshua must be going HBO after this, if not, the two firms must be in a serious bidding war.
If Ortiz chins Wilder there's gonna be a lot of sulking from the powers that be.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
They're rated 2 and 5 so wouldn't make sense.
The 1 vs 3 can be for the Ring belt but in this scenario, where Wilder is clearly regarded as no.2, in his pomp, active and the most glamorous opponent for Joshua, it would have cheapened their status to award the title for the sake of it.

I think (traditionally) the Ring belt has been lineal. So, for example, when Mike Tyson had every other belt going, Micheal Spinks had the Ring 'belt' because he had beaten Holmes, who had beaten Ali, who had beaten Etc etc.
They have accepted lower ranked people before .... I think they set up the Marvin Hart v Jack Root fight for the World Heavyweight Title when James J Jeffries retired
