Just brilliant.

Whats wrong with him fighting Lemieux, Charlo, N'Dam/Murata? Yeah yeah I know, I beat him, we're ducking him and who gives a fuck about them. His alternative?

Last time I checked, posting on social media didn't improve rankings and doesn't pay very well, for most.

Well it paved the way for the likes of Haye, Fury, Bellew, McGregor and others to make more money than they should've done.
"For most"

There are exceptions. Haye, McGregor. You're not having Bellew or Fury though. Fury earned his shot legitimately and no amount of social media nonsense has boosted his pay cheque as far as I can see. Bellew was the opponant. He earned well but Haye was the driver and lets not forget, he played his part in making it viable by actually fighting and chinning Makabu.

If mouthing off on social media was a sure fire thing, Charlie Z would have had his shot at Joshua by now.

Jacobs is a fine fighter and good man no doubt, but when it comes to mass appeal and pulling power, he's closer to Zelenoff than he is Haye or McGregor.
