JOSH WARRINGTON may miss out on a chance to become a two-weight world champion - despite landing a shot at IBF super-featherweight title holder Anto Cacace.

But the IBF have so far refused to ratify Warrington as a challenger as he has not fought in the 9st 4lb division in more than a decade and has never been ranked.
