I need to return to the TTT text, the book is currently in storage so is not to hand but I am certain there is some sense in the book that Saruman has bred/improved/interferred with the U H rather than they have improved by natural selection.
If you make something of the Azog/Bolg father son connection and Bolg or Azog go early you can bring the grief of kinship into both sides of the story. So either Azog or Bolg are seeking revenge for the loss of their son/ father.
or
If you want to retain the focus on Thorin and Azig /Bolg is mere fact with no exposition.
Film 1 has set up the the Azog Thorin arc through Thrors death.
Film 2 can set up the Bolg Thorin arc through Thrains capture and subsequent torture by Bolg.
If Thorin is confronted by both at the Five Armies ( we have already seen them fighting together at BofA) taunting him about his grand father and father that could set in motion the sequence of madness on the battlefield that replicates all of Tolkiens interactions. The only bit that needs to be filled in with this option is Bolg surviving TBoDG.
I tried to save the shire , and it has been but not for me.

I hope they don't try to void it. Azog and Bolg are only unique in that their kinship is mentioned and specified,
