JOSH WARRINGTON is back in action this weekend as he faces Anthony Cacace at Wembley Stadium.
Warrington, a former two-time world champion, was hoping to challenge Cacace for the IBF super-featherweight title he won from Joe Cordina earlier this year.
But the IBF has blocked the title fight because of Warrington’s supposed inactivity at 130lbs and his last fight being a defeat.
Cacace was brilliant in his TKO win over Cordina and will be delighted with the fact that even if he loses to Warrington, his belt will stay firmly in his grasp.
Warrington hasn’t fought since he was stopped by Leigh Wood nearly a year ago and will be out to silence those questioning his title fight credentials against Cacace.
But the Northern Irishman will be brimming with confidence after unexpectedly picking up the IBF strap earlier this year, and he has the chance to pull off another big win on the biggest of stages at Wembley Stadium.
