1. Thank you and goodnightpublished at 23:02 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    That's all from us tonight after an exciting night of boxing where Natasha Jonas and Lauren Price sealed a unification showdown for next year.

    That might well be the last time Jonas boxes in her home city and she produced an impressive, controlled display.

    A fight with Price looks all set for March as the UK gears up for another huge world title clash.

    Thank you for following along with us this evening.

    Lauren Price speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live:

    "I can't give it away too much.

    "It's early next year [Jonas v Price]. That's it really.

    "If it was down to me, we would have been fighting here tonight.

    "She doesn't want the fight, I get it.

    "I'm in my prime, she's coming towards the end of her career, I respect that, but I believe I win that fight."

    Well, the two fighters have basically just made it official in the ring.

    "Have a good Christmas and a good camp and I'll see you next year," Price tells Jonas.

    "Careful what you wish for," Jonas replies.

    "Too young, too quick, too good," Price says.

    "Not as good as you think you are," says Jonas.

    "We will see."

    An engrossing first exchange between the pair.

  4. 'I am so proud to represent this city'published at 22:51 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    Natasha Jonas on Sky Sports:

    "I just want to thank everyone who has come out for the 20 years you have supported me.

    "I am so proud to represent this city.

    "I am my own biggest critic. You just have to adapt as you go through the rounds.

    "I was a bit off it in parts but that's why I wanted a warm-up.

    "I think I hurt her in one of the earlier rounds.

    "I probably made myself tired overtrying to get her out of there.

    "I can look forward to Christmas now. I think I've got 22 people to make roast potatoes for on Christmas Day.

    "My story doesn't end here and it won't end against Lauren Price either."

    There were four tight rounds, but she still won them.

    I thought Natasha won every single round there.

    The perfect send-off for Natasha Jonas in Liverpool as the 40-year old shows off her skills to totally outclass Ivana Habazin.

    We will hopefully hear from the champion shortly.

    I thought there were moments there that she was flawless, the first four rounds.

    Some of the harder and more gruelling rounds, she kept composed.

    Natasha Jonas climbs the ropes and celebrates in anticipation of the win while Jump Around by House of Pain rings out in Liverpool.

  11. Round 10published at 22:43 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    Jonas v Habazin

    Natasha Jonas remains on the front-foot.

    She's made a tough fight on paper look easy in reality.

    Jonas has looked a class above throughout this contest and she ends with a flurry in the tenth,.

    That was a really impressive display.

    Jonas v Price is ON.

    Steve Bunce says Natasha Jonas v Lauren Price will happen in London in March if Jonas completes this victory.

    Here we go, the final round.

  14. Round ninepublished at 22:40 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    Jonas v Habazin

    Nice right hand from Ivana Habazin towards the end of the ninth round, a close session that.

    Ivana Habazin is extremely durable.

    Jonas v Habazin

    Ivana Habazin lands on Natasha Jonas' chin but the home fighter just sucks it up.

    We have three minutes remaining and Habazin needs a knockout or Natasha Jonas is going to win by a wide margin on the cards.

    Smart boxing, smart thinking.

    I don't think Habazin took enough advantage of Natasha taking, clearly, what was effectively a round off.

    Efficient and precise, Natasha Jonas is in control.

    Her footwork is vastly superior to that of Ivana Habazin.

  18. Round eightpublished at 22:36 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    Jonas v Habazin

    The last three rounds have been tighter.

    Arguably Natasha Jonas has won every round, but certainly her pace has slowed in the back half of this contest.

    Ivana Habazin has to go for broke now. She needs a stoppage.

    Even now she's landing combinations while Habazin is relying on single shots.

    We might be in for a bit of a run in in these last few rounds.

  20. Round sevenpublished at 22:33 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2024

    Jonas v Habazin

    Ivana Habazin is trying to impose herself but she just can't find the power shot she is going to need at the monent.

    You would have to say Habazin's chance to win this fight on points has probably already gone.

    She's going to need to land a big shot.

    However, it's Jonas who continues to land the more eye-catching punches, Habazin can't seem to repel her left hands to the body.
