Cacace’s victory over Wood extended his record to 24 wins and one loss from 25 fights and he admits he is “over the moon” with recent performances.<\/p>\n

“I’ve been very lucky, and I appreciate it all the last year and a half,” he added.<\/p>\n

“I worked extremely hard for 12-14 weeks for the Wood fight, I put my body and mind through hell. It was a very tough camp, but I keep getting the wins and it makes it worth going through these camps.”<\/p>\n

In the aftermath of the fight at the Motorpoint Arena<\/a>, Cacace spoke of his desire for his next bout to be in Belfast amid talk of a possible WBC super-featherweight world title shot against O’Shaquie Foster.<\/p>\n

“There has only been one person to win the WBC from Northern Ireland – Wayne McCullough, so it would be another great achievement if I was to go win something like that, even talking about these things blows my mind,” Cacace said, when speaking on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

His last three wins have come on the road, and he admitted his dream fight would also be far from home, in Las Vegas against one of America’s top fighters.<\/p>\n

“America would be nice, Las Vegas somewhere big like that with a massive name. I believe I deserve it because I have wiped out the whole of the UK scene, all of these top champions have lost against me,” he explained.<\/p>\n

“Give me more of these world champions, the likes of Gervonta Davis and Shakur Stevenson who people really don’t fancy you against, I would be real underdog, and I feel when I get put into those positions, I perform my best.<\/p>\n

“I’m happy to go to wherever, I’m going to take a few months off so we will wait on some good news.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
