We’re off to the scorecards
To be fair, the ring is slippy.
A solid round from Cacace despite the cut. He’s doing his best to keep Warrington at distance.
You have to think Warrington needs a stoppage in the last round. I have 7-4 to the Apache.

I’d score it 6-3 in Cacace’s favour
That round belongs to Anthony Cacace. He dominated proceedings landing eye-catching punches at the start and the end of the ninth. Warrington is behind on the cards, and I think he knows it.
