Jacoby is a very long and rangy fighter at the 205 lbs division. Stewart has moved up from the middleweight division recently. However, one might argue that he is even a bit undersized for the 185 lbs division. So, Jacoby might use that to his advantage and outstrike Stewart to the way to earning a T/KO finish in his favor.
