“It’s massive, it’s a massive fight for the British public. If it was down to me I’d be fighting her now but the politics of boxing and other things [meant that was not possible].

“We both need to get the win and then we can look forward to that fight. It’s a fight I’ve wanted for a long time and a fight that I believe I win.”

Price says she feels she is the woman to beat at welterweight and is viewing Jonas as a stepping-stone to her plans of dominating the division.

“I’ve got a lot of respect for Tash and what she has done for boxing, but when I turned over as Olympic champion I wanted to move fast – and now I’ve got three belts,” Price said.

“I want other belts and want to become undisputed. It’s a business and if she’s got titles I want then I want that fight.

“I believe in myself and that’s the biggest thing you need in this game. I know how good I am and I’ve got a lot more to come. I’ve had seven fights and won every round.

“I live and breathe boxing, the way I train. I tick boxes and I get wins and results. I believe in myself and believe I have the skill to beat Tash.”
