Has that been discussed?

I've seen a lot of discussion around this and said,

But how can Laurent go and fight Clarissa at middleweight?

How can Clarissa, for me, come back down to middleweight is a big question.

So the fact that we've been able to agree to fight at the 160 limit... Ah, OK, so that's agreed.

Again, negotiations are still back and forth on other elements.

So I know Dimitri Salita, who's been Clarissa's promoter for a long time, will want to wait until contracts are signed.

But the 160 limit is agreed, and that's a huge, huge...

opportunity for Lauren look Lauren's won a gold medal at middleweight people will say oh she's boxing at welterweight I believe Lauren Price is best at middleweight and you were going to see that and and Clarissa who's done her best work at middleweight and has had some fantastic nights at middleweight has to come back down and and that's always difficult later in your career

Listen, well... I don't want this to sound like a soap opera, but we've got to go through the names.

I've seen comments from Michaela and we had to put them right in the end because it's a fight that Lauren's wanted and we've tried to make for the past 12 months.

It's an undisputed fight that always makes sense for Lauren.

We've done Michaela with Alicia Baumgartner.

We've done Michaela with Natasha Jonas.

What a fight.

And it made perfect sense for us.

And so the reason that fight hasn't happened isn't because of Lauren Price.

And so I'm not going to talk badly about any fighter, but that's just a fact.

And could that fight have happened in August?

Could it happen before the Shields fight?
