The fight will headline in the capital with Dickens putting his WBA World Super-Featherweight Title on the line against former IBF champion ‘The Andytown Apache’.
After his fight fell through on the December 27 card in Saudi Arabia, talk of Dickens defending his 130-pound world title belt against Cacace early in the New Year gathered momentum.

Pierce O’Leary Dublin Homecoming Confirmed vs Mark Chamberlain In Co-Main Event
As well as Jazza Dickens vs Anto Cacace being confirmed for March 14 at the 3Arena in Dublin, Pierce O’Leary vs Mark Chamberlain has also been officially announced the chief support.
O’Leary vs Chamberlain will go down in the co-main event of this St Patrick’s Day weekend boxing bonanza in the capital, fighting for the vacant IBO World Super-Lightweight Title.
Although the IBO isn’t fully recognised as one of the four main world title belts, it is still held in high regard by many. This includes Cacace, who still has the IBO belt at super-featherweight too.
O’Leary vs Chamberlain is a real 50/50 fight in many people’s eyes, adding to the intrigue of the entire St Patrick’s Day weekend card in Dublin come March 14.
This is going to be some weekend in Dublin!
You can always expect fireworks when Anto steps in the ring, and what a challenge he has fighting Jazza Dickens for the world title.
Pierce O’Leary will also want to impress his home fans as he’s in a cracker of a fight with Mark… https://t.co/d3Au1As0Ue

The winner of the fight will be in a strong position for the remainder of the year, perhaps even closing in on a full world title fight against one of the other champions at 140-pounds.
As well as being a compelling battle in the co-main event, the fight will serve as O’Leary’s Dublin homecoming.
‘Big Bang’ has been desperate to fight back in his home city for years now, having campaigned his entire career across the Irish Sea in the mainland UK. Now, he finally gets his wish to fight in front of his own people just 72 hours before St Patrick’s Day.
The fight is another guaranteed banger, with both Chamberlain and O’Leary no stranger to coming forward and giving it as good as they get.
Both Dickens vs Cacace and O’Leary vs Chamberlain are incredible match-ups and promise to deliver to the Irish fight fans on March 14.
