    WBO welterweight champion Mayer wrote on social media, external after the all-female card in London that she expects to fight Price this year.

    Mayer congratulated both Price and Jonas “for the rumble”, adding: “All the fights on the card were highly entertaining and it was a total WIN for women’s boxing!

    “I got a job to do March 29 but I fully expect to be sharing the ring with Price later this year.”

    Double Olympic champion Claressa Shields also congratulated Price on her victory over Liverpool’s Jonas and hinted she could share the ring with the Welshwoman at the higher weight of 154lb.

    That is a 7lb increase on the limit for Price’s bout with Jonas.

    “I thought every judge should’ve had it 90-100! Price was super dominant! Congrats girl,” Shields wrote on X., external

    When asked if she would consider fighting Price, Shields added: “She’s too green, my skills are too much for her. But hey 154, I think we can see it.”

    Price was mesmerising in her victory over Jonas, winning emphatically 98-93, 100-90 and 98-92 on the judges’ scorecards.

    The 2020 Olympic champion feels her attributes will take her to the top of the professional ranks.

    “I’ll remember this night for the rest of my life,” she said.

    “Tasha’s a great fighter, but I knew my speed and my feet, that’s what won me the Olympic gold medal and I feel it’s going to get me to the top in the pros.

    “It started with [Jessica] McCaskill in May and I just feel like I’m getting better and better.

    “I’ll speak to [promoter] Ben [Shalom] and I want to go back to Wales, there’s nothing quite like boxing at home, but this was very special and I’ll remember it for the rest of my life.”

    Her display against Jonas earned widespread praise, with former super featherweight world champion Barry Jones stating Price was “punch perfect”.

    Boxing pundit Steve Bunce told the 5 Live Boxing with Steve Bunce podcast: “Lauren Price showed and proved that she might just be the face of women’s boxing going forward.”
