I know Josh, he's a great fighter, and I know he's going to come out and fight hard, but I just believe I'm the better guy and this is my time,» Cacace said. «I know the style that Josh brings and I know what I bring, so I believe this is going to be the best fight of the night.»
Warrington beat Carl Frampton to retain his world title in December 2018, and that's something Cacace plans to avenge.
