Anthony Cacace: Frank Warren announces more good news for Belfast fighter
The good times just keep on rolling for Anthony Cacace. The Belfast boxer is enjoying the best year of his career having won the IBF World super-featherweight title back in May.
He continued his ascent with a convincing points win over former world champion Josh Warrington last month on the undercard of Daniel Dubois's stunning knockout victory over Anthony Joshua.
The 35-year-old is making up for previous disappointments and setbacks with a late rally in his career, and now he's been rewarded with a new contract with Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions.

The IBO World super-feather champion joins five other Queensberry fighters signing new deals. They include WBA featherweight champion Nick Ball, IBO World super-bantamweight champion Liam Davies, leading middleweight contender Hamzah Sheeraz, heavyweight prospect Moses Itauma, and Sam Noakes, the British, Commonwealth and European lightweight champion.
Warren said: "I am thrilled to secure the futures of eight such richly talented fighters. We have worked with nearly all of them right from the beginning or very early in their careers and the faith we have shown in each other has been rewarded by them realising their potential and justifying the belief we had in them.

“That Nick Ball, Anto Cacace and Liam Davies have reached world title status is a particular joy, and the good news is that I am certain there are more world champions to come from this group, who are all set for further exciting developments in the coming months.”
