There is plenty at stake for both men who will be looking to prolong their careers at the highest level with a win. 

In the eyes of former Jacobs opponent Gabriel Rosado, he believes Ryder needs to be busy inside the ring if he has any chance of beating the American.

"I think they’re going to feel each other out, but I think the momentum is going to lean towards Ryder," Rosado told The DAZN Boxing Show. 

"I think Ryder needs to stay active, stay busy.

"He’s the shorter guy, but I’d prefer him to fight on the outside rather than try and smother Jacobs."

Rosado then explained what Ryder needs to avoid against the 40-fight veteran. 

"Jacobs is a better fighter when he’s on his back foot, but if you make Jacobs walk you down, you’ve got an advantage on him," Rosado claimed.

"I think Ryder should use his southpaw slickness, his jab, use the angles and then in spots work the inside and take it right back to the outside."
