Lauren Price: ‘I want to bring big-time boxing back to Wales’

Date:

Price has already fought in Wales once previously, when she beat Jessica McCaskill in May 2024 to become world champion for the first time.

Although her next fight with Jonas could take place outside of Wales, the Ystrad Mynach fighter made it clear she wants to face her fellow Brit next.

“For the British fans I would love to fight Tash (Natasha Jonas),” Price continued.

“It’s one hell of a fight for British fans and boxing in general.

“In this pro game you have to call the shots. If you’re a world champion and you have titles you should fight anyone.

“I have a few years in me but next year I want to be chasing belts. I want to be an undisputed world champion.”

Speaking to BBC Radio 5Live after Jonas’ win later on Saturday evening, Price was quick give her prediction for the proposed bout.

“I’m in my prime, she’s coming towards the end of her career,” said Price.

“I respect that, but I believe I win that fight.

“If it was down to me, we would have been fighting here tonight.

“But she [Jonas] doesn’t want the fight, I get it.”
