Jarrell Miller is currently getting ready for the fight of his life on June 1st when he takes on heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua at Madison Square Garden.
It will be by far the biggest step up of Miller’s pro career thus far and he comes into the bout as a big underdog but he’ll at least have hometown advantage on the night being a local from New York himself.
One of the stories coming into the fight has surrounded how lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has claimed that when the two sparred in the past he dropped ‘Big Baby’ a total of seven times.
Speaking in a media scrum Miller had an unusual reaction, to put it mildly:
“Oh my God. I hear Fury humped a donkey seven times! Hear that? Why not? I just told you!”
He added:
“Everybody is looking for clout. But Me and Tyson is cool. I can show you pics of me and Tyson on Instagram. Out of any heavyweight out there I’m a Tyson Fury fan because he’s real, he wears his heart on his sleeve and he’s overcome certain things in his life.”
Miller has his hands full with Joshua on June 1st but no doubt he hasn’t heard the last from Fury on this one would imagine.
