Anthony Cacace dethroned Joe Cordina as the IBF super-featherweight champion by stopping him in eight rounds in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

IBF super featherweight world champion Joe Cordina has said that he wants to finish his career in the Welsh capital of Cardiff. He takes on Irishman Anthony Cacace on the Tyson Fury-Oleksandr Usyk undercard tonight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.


Zelfa Barrett is back in the gym and making sure he is ready when the opportunity presents itself.

The prospect of defending his IBF super-featherweight title against Anthony Cacace a week after seeing Lauren Price become a world champion means Joe Cordina is dreaming of a new golden era for Welsh boxing.

Whisper it, but it is looking increasingly likely that Anthony Cacace will finally get the chance to take part in a big fight.

When Anthony Cacace (21-1, 7 KOs) steps into the ring in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, he will not only be fighting the most formidable opponent of his career, Joe Cordina (17-0, 9 KOs), in a challenge for the IBF super-featherweight title.

On Saturday night, Ryan Garner scored the best victory of his career by beating Liam Dillon over 10 exciting rounds. The 26-year-old Garner is already by a pool in Turkey nursing a black eye and a cocktail. Garner, 15-0 (8 KOs), showed signs of real quality during his victory over former British super featherweight champion Dillon, and also had to call on previously uncapped reserves of desire and stamina as the tough Londoner put in a tremendously brave effort.

The undercard has been announced for the May 18 heavyweight unification clash between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

Joe Cordina reveals that he is willing to vacate the IBF super-featherweight title due to a lack of progress of being able to unify the title
