Lauren Price Teases 'Exciting News' To Come After Upcoming Title Defence

 

Lauren Price is just days away from making her highly-anticipated return to the ring but already appears to be looking ahead into the future. 

The unbeaten 31-year-old is set to make the maiden defence of her unified WBC, WBA and IBF world welterweight titles against Stephanie Pineiro at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff on Saturday night. 

Price added the WBC and IBF welterweight titles to her collection last time out when she produced a career-best performance over Liverpool's Natasha Jonas back in March of 2025. 

Whilst she looks to be very focused heading into her upcoming clash with Puerto Rico's Pineiro, Price has hinted that there is something big on the horizon. 

In recent footage shared by BOXXER, Price didn't hesitate to back herself to get the job done over her Puerto Rican rival before revealing that she is set to reveal some 'exciting news' shortly after. 

"Lauren Price is gonna get her hand raised, and then some exciting news to come. And that's all I can say!"

Rumours have already began to circulate about what could be next for Price should she be victorious on Saturday night, with many calling for an undisputed welterweight championship showdown with America's Mikaela Mayer. 

Mayer currently holds the WBO world welterweight title and has recently expressed an interest in a future showdown with the Welsh star, a bout that would crown the first undisputed welterweight champion of the 'four belt era'.

Rhys Edwards All Set For British Title Challenge

  Tonypandy's Rhys Edwards is just days away from challenging for the British Featherweight title on a stacked bill at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff.  The highly-rated 26-year-old will face Wolverhampton's Gully Powar for the vacant 126lb Lonsdale Belt on the undercard of Lauren Price's world title defence against Puerto Rico's Stephanie Pineiro.  Price is set to defend her unified WBC, WBA and IBF world welterweight titles as she looks to move a step closer to achieving undisputed status at 147lbs.  Edwards has had an impressive professional career to date, winning all but one of the 18 contests he has participated in since he made his debut back in November of 2018.  He suffered the only defeat of his tenure in December 2024 when he was narrowly outpointed by the highly-rated Peter McGrail at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.  Victory on Saturday night would see Edwards become the latest Welshman to capture a version of the coveted Lord Lonsdale B...

  Photo Credit: Huw Fairclough/Getty Images Joshua John's dream of fighting for the coveted Lonsdale Belt is set to be made official in the coming weeks.  The 31-year-old from Port Talbot has been waiting patiently for his opportunity to box for the British bantamweight title ever since he defeated Logan Richardson in a final eliminator last June.  John outclassed Richardson over ten rounds at The Galleries in Bristol to earn his shot at the title, which is currently vacant.  The last fighter to hold the belt was Liverpool's Andrew Cain, who made just one defence of the title when he defeated world title challenger Charlie Edwards in his hometown back in March of 2025.  As revealed on the BBBofC's recent Championship Circular , John has been ordered to face Tilbury's Harvey Smith for the vacant British bantamweight strap next.  Smith is also the reigning Commonwealth Bantamweight champion, a title he has held since he defeated Glasgow's Lennon Mulligan back...
