Cacace And Wood Ready To Deliver – ‘I Always Perform'

Anthony Cacace and Leigh Wood made the junior lightweight limit for their May 10 fight. 

Cacace puts his IBO Super Featherweight Belt on the line. He enters the fight with a comprehensive victory over former featherweight champion Josh Warrington. After that win, Cacace vacated his IBF Junior Lightweight Belt as he targeted the biggest bouts out there. Wood is a big name, having recently signed to Queensbury following his departure from Matchroom Boxing. Wood also enters the fight with a win against Warrington, as he became the WBA Featherweight Champion. He vacated the belt to move up to junior lightweight. The two boxers weighed 129.8 pounds.

"It’s time to go. This was the final stretch. Now to refuel. Let’s fight. I’m just raring to go. Power’s one thing to do with this game. What’s he going to do, keep throwing bombs? He needs to be able to box and get out of different situations. I’ve got the power, too. We’re going to have to see on the night," Cacace

"Bring the noise, I’ll bring the rest. I won’t disappoint, I promise. I always perform best when I’m the underdog," Wood
