Lauren Price Challenges Jessica McCaskill for WBA Welterweight World Title – Live Fight Night on May 11
Welsh boxing sensation Lauren Price is gearing up for the fight of her life as she challenges Jessica McCaskill for the WBA welterweight world title on May 11. With an impressive record of six wins in six rounds since turning pro, Price is confident in her abilities despite facing a tough opponent in McCaskill.
McCaskill, a former undisputed champion, has never lost a decision at 147lbs, but Price remains undeterred. With her amateur background boasting Olympic and Commonwealth Games gold medals, Price feels well-equipped to take on this challenge.
Price’s promoter Ben Shalom believes now is the perfect time for her to go after her first world title, even in just her seventh professional fight. Price herself is determined to bring glory back to Welsh boxing and create a legacy similar to Katie Taylor’s impact on Ireland.
The fight will take place at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff, marking Price’s first bout in Wales in a decade. With the support of a home crowd behind her, Price is ready to showcase her skills and make a statement in the boxing world.
Despite McCaskill’s experience in the professional ranks, Price is focused on her own journey to become a multi-weight world champion and achieve greatness in the sport. This fight is set to be a monumental event, with Price aiming to put Wales back on the boxing map.
The matchup between Price and McCaskill is one of the most highly anticipated in recent times, promising an exciting display of skill and determination from both fighters. Boxing fans won’t want to miss this showdown between two of the sport’s brightest stars.
