Andrew Cain begins the defence of his WBC international silver super-bantamweight title tonight against Luis Moreno, just five weeks after winning the title against Pablo Ariel Gomez. The 25-year-old knockout specialist has won his first nine fights with eight coming by way of knockout.
His opponent tonight comes into the fight with a 10-2 record and represents a stiff test for the Liverpool based fighter. The fight will take place at the famous York Hall and is the biggest challenge of Cain's career to date. His last fight finished in just 19 seconds in a whirlwind victory which saw him announce himself in the division.
Moreno's last fight in the UK was a defeat to Dennis McCann at the Copper Box in London and it is sure to be an interesting fight. It takes place on the undercard of the vacant WBC International bantamweight fight between Brad Foster and Ionut Baluta, with Liverpool middleweight James Heneghan also on the bill.
