Lauren Price will defend her World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight title on December 14 against Bexcy Mateus at the Exhibition Center in Liverpool, UK.

On Wednesday, the promoter made the official announcement of this fight, an evening during which several crucial fights will take place and several characters will be in the ring.

Price will make the first defense of her crown, which she won on May 11 last year, defeating Jessica McCaskill in the ninth round by technical decision. The fight had to be stopped due to her opponent being cut after an accidental headbutt and the Briton was on top by the end of the fight.

The fighter from Bogota will fight for the first time outside the country, which means a massive challenge, but she is supported by her striking power and aggressive style.

Price arrives with a record of 7 wins, no losses and 1 knockout, while Mateus has 7 wins, no losses and 6 knockouts.
