Boxing News - Anthony Joshua receives Jarrell Miller warning
Anthony Joshua has been warned by David Haye not to underestimate Jarrell Miller in their New York showdown.
“The odds might be short on another ‘AJ’ win against Jarrell Miller, but don’t underestimate his opponent,” the former WBA heavyweight champion said.
“Trust me, there is always danger in the heavyweight division.
“Whenever there is a heavyweight who is undefeated, who stands 6ft 4ins tall and weighs 23 stone – well, all it takes is one punch.
“Anthony Joshua got decked by a 17 stone Wladimir Klitschko.
“Why can’t Big Baby Miller do the same? If he detonates a big shot on AJ’s chin, then he’s vulnerable.”
