Claressa Shields is poised to reignite discussions for a highly anticipated women's super fight against Lauren Price, with promoter Dmitriy Salita expressing optimism about reaching an agreement. The excitement surrounding this matchup intensified when Shields faced off with Price in Cardiff last April, setting the stage for a potential clash between the multi-weight world champion from America and the unified welterweight title holder from Wales.

Although the fight remains unconfirmed, Shields is currently focused on her upcoming middleweight bout against Kaye Scott for the WBC and WBA titles. Salita believes that a deal is within reach, stating, "When Claressa went to Wales, we believed we had the framework of a deal in place, and we're still operating in that spirit. I believe we're close."

Shields is moving down to 160lbs to facilitate this matchup, showcasing her desire to secure prominent global fights. Salita highlighted Shields' commitment to advancing women's boxing, emphasizing that Price, an Olympic gold medallist, represents one of the biggest challenges in the sport.

Price has yet to announce her next fight following her successful title defense against Stephanie Pineiro Aquino, where she secured a wide decision victory. While Shields prepares for her bout on August 15, Salita confirmed that her focus remains on achieving a historic milestone—becoming a middleweight world champion after moving down from heavyweight.

Absolutely, we'd love to make the fight,
