While @DAZN_USA is preparing to soon announce at least some of its fall #boxing events, sources tell me 1 of the cards in the works for November would see @DanielJacobsTKO headline in a super middleweight fight with middleweight titlist @BooBooAndrade defending in the co-feature.

This is nonsense. @BooBooAndrade is undefeated, has a world title, was a U.S. Olympian and a world amateur champion. He will fight anyone, but all the top middleweights (and before that junior middleweights) avoided him like he had Covid-19. #truth https://t.co/ZR3EHJP60z

Last I checked it's not @BooBooAndrade's fault that Billy Joe Saunders had to take PEDs in preparation to fight him and got caught and it cost him his belt. https://t.co/SVfG3LDt30

I know people are gonna go for the obvious low hanging fruit. "Why aren't they fighting each other?" The real boxing fans know the answer to that by now. My question is why is Jacobs headlining? I know he's the bigger name & has had bigger fights but he isn't an astronomically bigger name than Andrade. Definitely not right now I'm not sure I've heard him mentioned much during this whole pandemic. Unless he's fighting a champion or someone extremely notable, he doesn't deserve to headline imo. He has 3 losses & he isn't a champion. Andrade has never lost & is undefeated.
