That's quite not fair to Eduardo Nunez, hope Cacace doesn't vacate the title if he beats Warrington whose moving up after a brutal KO loss to Leigh Wood.

Okay then it's not fair to me god damn it, I wanted to watch Nunez fight Cacace for a title shot.

I am just bitter I suppose.

You are allowed. Your a boxing fan. Bitterness is part of the deal. Actually, may be a requirement.

I wonder why the IBF waited until now to announce that this would be a non-title fight. It doesn't really feel like a "non-title" fight because Cacace is being punished for losing. He's still technically defending his title, even-though Warrington technically can't win it.

Why did hearn think this would be acceptable for a title defence, a unranked fighter (at the weight) coming off a ko loss in the weightclass below.

Saying that warrington must be gutted over this. He will have sold loads of tickets so probably not in a position to pull out because he would be letting down friends and family .
