WEC

Toner was scheduled to make his World Extreme Cagefighting debut against Brandon Visher on December 19, 2009 at WEC 45.[1] However, Toner was denied a license from the Nevada State Athletic Commission, because his vision was too poor to fight.[2]

Toner instead faced Visher on April 24, 2010 at WEC 48.[3] He won the fight via TKO (elbows) in the first round.

Toner faced Diego Nunes on September 30, 2010 at WEC 51.[4] He lost the fight via unanimous decision.

Ultimate Fighting Championship

In October 2010, World Extreme Cagefighting merged with the Ultimate Fighting Championship. As part of the merger, all WEC fighters were transferred to the UFC.[5]

Toner was expected to face Leonard Garcia on December 4, 2010 at The Ultimate Finale 12, but Garcia was rescheduled to fight Nam Phan. Ian Loveland stepped in to face Toner and defeated Toner via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-26, 29-28).[6]

After the loss, he was subsequently released from the promotion.

Shootboxing

On June 1, 2009, Toner traveled to Japan on short notice to take on Shootboxing World Champion Kenichi Ogata. Widely considered a big underdog, Toner shocked the Japanese audience by knocking out Ogata with a head kick at 2:57 of the first round securing the upset win over the former champion.[7]

Personal life

Toner and his wife were married six weeks after his fight at WEC 48.[8]
