Tale of the Tape
Ursu has become a feared welterweight fighter, rising to his current level quickly. He became the Commonwealth and WBO European champion in 2025 and is unbeaten heading into this fight.
Cooper isn't a bad fighter in his own right. He has made his own journey to the top of British welterweight boxing in rapid time, having only turned professional in 2019.
The issue he may face in this contest is the orthodox vs southpaw battle, with the Moldovan England-based fighter using his southpaw stance to his advantage.

Betting Markets to Watch
The fight going the distance market offers value, with the 'Yes' outcome the most probable. Although Cooper suffered a knockout loss in his only defeat, both men have shown that they need to go the full distance more often than not to record a victory.
If we look at a long shot, we do think there is value in the 'Constantin Ursu KO/TKO/DQ' market that is worth exploring. Combined with Cooper's recent loss by this method, Ursu does have three wins in his last five fights by this method.
Still, we think Cooper is a tougher opponent, but there's certainly value to be had. If you're new to boxing betting, understanding these markets can help you find opportunities.
