Easy, choose the one you can manipulate easiest, er I mean establish a sound working relationship with.
Also, it helps if they conveniently rank a load of shite fighters ahead of your boy anyway, & appear to have a blindspot when it comes to ranking anyone with a pulse. It might help to target one of the titles a superstar around the weight doesn't want (hence the IBF merry-go-round whilst Barrera, Morales, Pacquiao & Marquez were fighting it out for the WBC superfeather title).
