Anthony Joshua vs. Jarrell Miller: The Long-Awaited Showdown

Anthony Joshua, the former world heavyweight champion, and Jarrell Miller, the disgraced drug cheat, engaged in a fiery exchange of insults at a press conference in Saudi Arabia. The two fighters were originally scheduled to face off in 2019 before Miller failed multiple drug tests.

Trash Talk and Bold Claims

During the press conference, Miller took aim at Joshua and his fellow heavyweights on the card, asserting that they all "can kiss my black a**." He further claimed that Joshua "don't want no smoke with Deontay" Wilder, insinuating that he would defeat Joshua in a fight.

Joshua Fires Back

Unwilling to tolerate Miller's insults, Joshua responded with equal aggression, threatening to physically confront Miller. He dismissed Miller's claims about Wilder, asserting that he would handle him as well. The heated exchange showcased the animosity that still exists between the two fighters.

An Unexpected Rivalry

Joshua's frustration extended beyond Miller as he clashed with announcer Dev Sahni. Sahni, who works for promoter Frank Warren, asked Joshua about his potential future fight with Miller. Joshua quickly shut down Sahni, reminding him that he is not his promoter and has no say in his career decisions.

Turning to His Promoter

Seeking to regain control of the press conference, Joshua redirected the attention to his promoter, Eddie Hearn. He demanded that Hearn ask him questions instead of Sahni. Hearn complied, diffusing the tense situation and allowing the press conference to continue.

Looking Ahead

Despite the heated exchanges, Joshua remains focused on his upcoming fight against Otto Wallin on December 23 in Saudi Arabia. Wallin, who has only one loss on his record, is a formidable opponent. Joshua is determined to bounce back from his recent defeats and regain his status as a top heavyweight contender.

Saving the Card

Joshua and Wilder's presence on the December 23 card in Saudi Arabia is a saving grace for boxing fans, as the highly anticipated clash between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury was postponed until 2024. The event promises to be a thrilling night of heavyweight boxing.
