Lauren Price Set to Defend Titles Against Michaela Kotaskova in Cardiff

Lauren Price, the reigning world champion, will defend her unified welterweight titles against Michaela Kotaskova on November 20 at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff. This match will be broadcast live on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer.

Price, a 32-year-old southpaw from Bargoed, previously fought at the same venue in April, where she secured a victory over Stephanie Pineiro Aquino. Kotaskova, a 34-year-old Czech fighter and current WBF titleholder, has only one loss in her 15-fight career, which occurred against Chantelle Cameron.

Price expressed her excitement about fighting at home, emphasizing her determination to maintain her title against a tough opponent. Kotaskova, returning to her natural welterweight division, aims to upset Price and claim her titles, motivated by the challenge of competing in front of Price's fans. The event promises to be a significant night for boxing in Cardiff.
