    WBF would have more credibility if it marketed itself as a veterans belt available to fighters over 40.

    Wilder wants to see how much Toney has left before he commits to fighting him.

    wilder vs Toney would be awesome addition to his resume,he would certainly have the worst Hw era champion status bar none if he did that.

    just remember
    1.Stiverne
    2.bellew
    3.an unknown ( maybe Toney)

    then Joshua in 2019.

    Even at this stage, Toney would be the best opponent on Wilders resume, by far. Toneys boxing IQ, in addition to his granite chin an overall physical toughness, would present a world of trouble for the one-dimensional Wilder. All Wilder has is power, but that is useless against Toney...

    Toney of the Peter fights beats Wilder... No question, but he's way too shot these days man.

    Wilder is there to look at Sheppard; seeing Sheppard has been in with the likes of Kuzmin, Washington, Chagaev, Minto, Tarver, Boytsov, Etienne...!!!

    Yes, Wilder just Can't take too big of a risk, which 60% Toney would be

    Toney is only an option if he is -completely- shot
