I had Bailey winning that fight. But I do think Smith will pull off the upset tonight
I don't think Smith will win (even if he wins they won't give it to him and he's not the type of fighter to force them to give him the decision), but he's going to make Jacobs look bad. I think Jacobs will win a close UD/SD in a fight where he's busier, but Smith lands the harder more accurate shots. I do think that it'll be a fight from which Jacobs learns a lot and even if he loses it will eventually make him a much better fighter. Ishe Smith is a serious challenge for anyone, let alone a prospect stepping up in class for the first time.
