You're right.I mean, we’re agreeing there. They made a mess of things previously which is why I’m saying no rush, let it play out if need be. Poatan vs. Jiri next makes the most sense, but we don’t know the status of Jiri. If Jiri isn’t ready, do Poatan vs. winner of this fight. That would be between most deserving contenders imo.
I feel like doing Krylov vs. Poatan just to get a champion because it will take too long like you suggested is doing exactly what you’re saying was bad with the Ankalaev/Blachowicz and Hill/Teixeira fights.
But Kylov is a top 5 fighter coming off a win. It's not outrageous to give him a title shot given the circumstances. but you are right.
