Jessica McCaskill on why she thinks she will beat Lauren Price

WBA welterweight champion Jessica McCaskill is confident she has the experience to defeat Lauren Price.

The two go head to head on May 11 ( live on Peacock in the US ) for their title fight, with 39-year-old champion McCaskill vastly more experienced than her 6-0 opponent.

Speaking to Sky Sports , McCaskill thinks she knows too much to lose.

"I don't know a lot about her and what she's done. I saw her fight Kirstie Bavington but that's it. That's not uncommon though I'm from the States, it's like two different worlds," she said.

"Every fight I've had has put me up levels. That should put me above Lauren Price because she's only had a small amount of pro fights.

"Amateur is amateur and pro is pro, you can't mix the two."

She continued: "Lauren is smart enough not to do certain things and make herself available in certain situations. The plan will be [about] getting to that point where I can land a clean punch.

"I saw a lot of mistakes from her opponents [where I'm] asking why did you do this? And then I can't watch anymore. We want to make sure we are smart. Cut off the ring properly.

"The fight could be me chasing her down or me fighting her hold. We've seen especially in the female fights there's this game of hit and hold. European fighters will hold.

"I don't rely on one specific thing. I see particular manoeuvres from her. I'm not sure if she's got that level of boxing maturity yet but we will see."
