Lauren Price shifts wedding plans to the sidelines as she readies for a high-stakes title defense against Stephanie Pineiro Aquino. The Welsh boxer puts her WBA, WBC, and IBF world welterweight belts on the line in Cardiff on April 4, just weeks before her May 30 wedding to Carlie Jones. Price, 31, acknowledges the juggling act: “I can’t get too involved with the wedding now. I have a job to do.” With an impressive 9-0 record, Price focuses on the fight ahead, dismissing any pressure from the titles. Aquino, known as "The Medicine," also remains unbeaten and stands as Price’s mandatory challenger. Price aims for three fights this year, eyeing a future showdown with WBO champion Mikaela Mayer and high-profile bouts against Claressa Shields and Katie Taylor. Price dreams of a fight at Cardiff City Stadium, where she once played for Wales.
