A professional since 2015, Cain signed a promotional contract with Frank Warren's Queensbury Promotions in 2020.[3]
Unbeaten in his first eight fights, he stopped Pablo Ariel Gomez just 19 seconds into the first round of their contest at the International Centre in Telford on 16 April 2022, to claim the vacant WBC Silver super-bantamweight title.[4]

His next defense was against Ionut Baluta at the International Centre in Telford on 25 March 2023. Cain lost the bout by split decision.[6]
Having taken 13 months away from boxing to recover from a hand injury,[7] he returned to the ring with a fourth-round knockout of Darwing Martinez at York Hall on 20 April 2024.[8]
Cain challenged British and Commonwealth bantamweight champion Ashley Lane at Resorts World Arena in Birmingham on 20 July 2024. The fight was halted in the fifth round after he knocked his opponent to the canvas twice.[9][10]
In his next outing, he stopped Lazaro Casseres in the second of their scheduled 10 rounds at Liverpool Arena on 5 October 2024, to win the vacant WBC Silver bantamweight title.[11]
