    Good fight, 50/50.

    If Jacobs can get Smiths respect early he has a great chance.

    If Jacobs can't then he gets ktfo

    Jesus, this is going to be a massacre. Why is Danny even contemplating doing this to himself? It'll look like the first two round of Jacobs-Chavez Jr. only Jacobs doesn't see round 3.

    Smith on size, and freshness alone. Jacobs is worn down and hasn't looked his best lately. Still has a chance though, because he's a much more better boxer that Smith. Smith is as basic as they come. Jacobs would have to turn back the clock a bit though, because he looked really bad vs Rosado.

    Big size difference here.

    Jacobs has spent most of his career at 160. Smith boils down to 175.

    Jacobs didn’t look very good against Rosado. I don’t think this is a smart plan...Smith Jr hits a little harder than Gabe Rosado.

    So size matters now? Because when you say modern heavyweights are too big for those 180 pound heavyweights before 160 the people hwere will say size doesn't matter.

    Anyway Smith is too big and too powerful for Jacobs. I see Jacobs being stopped in 5 rounds or less.

    Now, if consensus dynamite punching light heavy Smith doesn't annihilate Jacobs early (yes I realize he probably will, I'm saying if he doesn't) I want everyone that hasn't yet to circle back and put some goddamn respect on Dmitry Pirog's name. A lot of the old 'Pirog just got a lucky shot on a glass jaw' posts are going to age very poorly if this isn't a KO1 for Joe.

    Smith should win this. I like Jacobs, but he hasn't looked good since he moved to 168.

    I thought we're getting Beterbiev v Smith?

    Smith can use one of the trees he cuts down to make Danny a coffin, it's only polite.

    Dude stop a crap ton of people know size matters. Mobody in their right mind would favor Floyd Paterson over Wladimir Klitschko

    Yeah exactly.

    Hearn should be approaching Beterbiev or trying to poach a Beterbiev-Smith unification fight from Top Rank and putting it on DAZN.

    Winner gets a DAZN contract and a Canelo fight down the line potentially.

    DAZN are going to have a lack of star fighters at this rate if

    a) Canelo is a free agent after this fight
    b) Joshua stays with Sky
    c) Whyte stays with Sky
    d) GGG continues fighting D-level opposition
