🥊 Ready for a night of boxing drama? Tonight, Welsh boxing sensation Lauren Price is stepping back into the ring right in the heart of Cardiff against Puerto Rican fighter Stephanie Pineiro. With a spotless record of 10 wins and prized belts on the line, the action at the Utilita Arena is bound to be electrifying! 🎉🏆
Price isn’t just fighting for titles—she’s a testament to resilience and triumph over adversity. Given up by her parents at just three days old, she was raised lovingly by her grandparents, Linda and Derek. “Nan is doing OK,” she shares, but adds that her grandmother’s nerves will keep her away from the TV for the match. Instead, she’ll patiently wait for results over a spot of tea and a KitKat. ☕🍫
The boxing ring isn’t the only place where Price is celebrating love—she’s also preparing to tie the knot with her long-time partner, Carlie Jones, in Abergavenny this May. Carlie, who runs her own care business, brings a refreshing balance to Price’s boxing-focused world. 👩❤️👩💍
Despite life’s challenges, Price remains incredibly grateful for the love and support of her grandparents. “They changed my life completely,” she admits, acknowledging that without them, her path could have been very different. ❤️
As for the fight, she knows Pineiro will come out with everything. “She’s strong, she’s tough…but I do believe I’m a level above,” says Price. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see her showcase her skills and put on a stellar performance. 📺✨
