PLYMOUTH boxer Constantin Ursu is now 'unavoidable', his trainer says, as his December 7 clash with Lewis Booth has been made a final eliminator for the British and Commonwealth welterweight titles.
Ursu, who made his pro debut in Plymouth five years ago this month, is taking on Booth at the Brentwood Centre in Essex, as part of the latest show promoted by Johnny Clark.
But that contest has now been made even more crucial for Ursu - dubbed the Moldovan Monster - as the winner will become mandatory challenger for the British and Commonwealth straps.
Should Ursu overcome Booth in Essex, he will take on either Harry Scarff or Liam Taylor, who are facing off for Scarff's welterweight crown on an as-yet-unannounced date.
