    Jacobs does better the bigger the fight so I expect he’s gonna look good

    Odds usually close up to reflect late money. Bookies tweak odds based on negating potential losses as well as the perceived outcome.

    Jacobs chin is why the odds are so close
    Bookies don’t trust his shaky mandible
    Thanks to Pirog one punch KO and the superb Mora KD

    Danny by Wide UD as I think he drops Derevyanchenko at least once if not twice around the 8h

    -190 isn't suggesting a 50/50 fight, it suggests a ~62/38 fight. Simple maths.

    Anything under 200 is close enough for 50-50

    I still think the cards are stacked against SD

    If you liked DJ before, you love these odds at less than 2/1

    Jacobs is a fighter that delivers when it's necessary (GGG and Quillin) and considering that he has sparred over 300 rounds against Sergeiy, I believe that he will bring his A game, however despite his small resume, Sergeiy is really dangerous fighter and more than capable of winning the fight IMO.
