Two of British boxing's finest female fighters will battle it out in a welterweight unification, with WBA, WBC and IBF gold on the line.

Price has not put a foot wrong in her professional career, but will face her sternest test to date against the experienced Jonas.

The proud Liverpudlian will be acutely aware that the stage is set for her to pass the torch onto the next generation, but she will be determined to rip up the script by rolling back the clock.

But will she manage to do so, or will we witness a true changing of the guard?

Before we find out, let's take a look at the 'Tale of the Tape'.

Natasha Jonas - In Profile

In two of her three biggest fights, Natasha Jonas has fallen agonisingly short.

In 2020, ‘Miss GB’ challenged Terri Harper for the WBC super-featherweight title, and after 10 back-and-forth rounds, many observes felt the Liverpudlian had done enough, but the judges were unable to split them.

The following year, she moved up in weight to take on, lightweight queen, Katie Taylor - the battle was a brutal one as both women exchanged hurtful shots.

Once more though, Jonas could have had her hand raised, but all the judges gave the fight to the Irishwoman by the slimmest of margins.

The London 2012 Olympian’s luck finally turned in 2022 as she captured three belts at super-welterweight, but against second-tier opposition,

A drop to welterweight saw the 40-year-old capture the IBF belt to become a two-weight world champion.

Last January, Jonas finally secured a marquee win as she got the nod over American star Mikaela Mayer.

Ironically, plenty were of the opinion that the American was hard done by, because, at times, the Liverpool fighter looked every bit of her advanced years.

The stage appears set for a changing of the guard moment, but maybe, just maybe, Jonas is capable of mustering one last elite-level performance to further cement her legacy.

Lauren Price - In Profile

For a three-year period, between 2018 and 2021, Lauren Price was the best amateur female middleweight in the world.

Over 36-months, she won gold at the Commonwealth Games, European Games, World Championship and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Now, she is determined to establish herself as the queen of the welterweight division as a professional.

The Welshwoman made a good start in May as she outboxed former undisputed 147lbs ruler Jessica McCaskill, winning every round before the bout was halted in the ninth, due to a swelling under the eye of the American.

In doing so, the 30-year-old captured the WBA welterweight strap.

If she is to beat Natasha Jonas, she will strengthen her claim by adding a notable name to her record, as well as another two belts to her collection.

The biggest concern for Price is her lack of professional experience.

Her rival has shared the ring with some of the best of this generation, while the Tokyo 2020 gold medallist is in the infancy of her career.

Jonas has never been dominated in a world title fight and if Price is able to do so, she will make a real statement.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Use of feints

Open to straight right shots

Controls the distance

Lack of power

Hand speed

Can stay in range too long

Footwork

Keeps her lead hand low
