Once he gets those issues resolved, he can make an attempt to unify. I understand that it would mean a bigger pay-day for Maskaev, but to be fair, Peter fought
Toney twice with alphabet soup mandating a second Toney fight. Peter has paid his dues and deserves a shot at Maskaev's title.
Why would he be giving up his belt?If the WBC says OK to this fight noboby has to give up a belt.
