In a departure from their agreement that they would always fight on different shows, Price’s partner, Karriss Artingstall, will compete against Marina Sakharov just before her on the undercard.
She did, however, acknowledge that they would be there to support her “100%” and that they would be unable to pass up the historic occasion.
“We’ve experienced that a number of times. The qualifiers, the Olympics, and I don’t think it gets any bigger than that,” added Price.
“I’ve been on after her, and she’s been on after me, so there’s nothing really new to us.
“We always said before we’d box on different shows, but this one time I don’t think either of us could have missed out on the opportunity.
“And obviously I’m hoping she’s on a couple of people in front of me so I can support her. Even if it’s from the changing rooms, I’ll be watching on the screen.
“We’ve got each other 100 per cent, and I’m sure I’ll be fine.”
Artingstall: Use this card to make the play
With her fight on Saturday being the second of her professional career, Artingstall has also just just entered the boxing professional ranks.
She will enter the ring soon before Price and acknowledges that while anxiety will be present, their Olympic experiences should help them remain composed on Saturday.
“Incredible. It’s phenomenal isn’t it? The main card as well are unbelievable fights and I can’t wait to watch them,” said Artingstall.
“We went through the Olympics together, we’ve experienced this before.
“When we were both at the medal stages, that was quite intense and hard to get through.
“My nerves were through the roof watching Lauren and vice-versa.
“But if there’s going to be a time to do it, what better card to do it on than this one? An all-female card, phenomenal talent. This is the one to do it on.”
