save_post not called in plugin / custom field still saving overwriting metaboxes

I have a plugin that writes metaboxes to certain pages. It writes the metaboxes fine and everything works as should...until I save. The save_post is not getting called, and I can't figure out why. Here is the code in my __Construct

class Avenuepress_Admin_Lite {

public static function start() {
 return new self();
} 

public function __construct() {
  $this->plugin_url = WP_CONTENT_URL . '/plugins/' . basename(dirname(__FILE__));
  $this->plugin_dir = dirname(__FILE__);

  add_action('admin_init', array($this, '_admin_init'));  
  add_action('save_post', array($this, '_save_post'), 99);
}

The metaboxes are made from custom fields, and if I edit a custom field text area it saves fine, but I want it to save the data entered from the metabox instead. For whatever reason the save_post will not fire. I tried putting a die(var_dump($_POST)) at the start of my _save_post function and it isn't even firing.

Here is my _save_post function

public function _save_post($post_id) {
  //die(dump_var($_POST));
  update_post_meta($post_id, 'content__service_overviews', "test2");
  // Post meta isn't sent for autosaves
  if (defined('DOING_AUTOSAVE') && DOING_AUTOSAVE) {
    return;
  }
}

Avenuepress_Admin_Lite::start();

As you can see I am just manually trying to update a field right now, but the function isn't even getting called.
