Jarrell Miller Career

Boxing career

Miller, an amateur boxer, reached the final of the 2007 New York Golden Gloves Heavyweight tournament in Madison Square Garden in New York, where he defeated Tor Hamer on points (4-1). Miller had an amateur record of 10–1, with 7 wins by knockout. Miller had a short career as a result of his being forced to turn professional because he was also a professional kickboxer.

Miller made his professional boxing debut at the Plattdue Park Restaurant in Franklin Square, New York, on July 18, 2009. In a scheduled 4-round match, his challenge was an experienced 36-year-old Darius Whitson. Miller won the first round by TKO due to the ring doctor's suspension of the game due to a injury suffered by an accidental headbutt. Miller defeated Isaac Villanueva by third-round TKO at the Roseland Ballroom in Manhattan, after a 22-month absence from boxing.

Miller went back to boxing for 11 months before returning to the ring in April 2012 against American boxer Donnie Crawford in Woodhaven, New York, stopping him 2 minutes and 38 seconds of round one. Miller defeated Tyrone Gibson, 36, at the Roseland Ballroom in December of that year.

Miller, 22, was in a scheduled 4-round match against 22-year-old up-and-comer Joey Dawejko (7-1-1, 3 KOs) at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut, on January 19, 2013. On all scorecards, the match was ruled as a draw 37–37, 3 times. Miller was suspended 2 points for pushing during the fight.

Miller defeated Tobias Rice in September 2013 when Rice was unable to qualify for round 3. Miller defeated Willie Chisolm in 2 rounds two months later. Miller defeated 39-year-old southpaw Sylvester Barron (8-2, 3 KOs). Miller defeated Barron in the six-round battle, knocking him down once in round 1 and then again in round 2 before refereee Benjy Esteves Jr. called the fight off. Miller fought at the Harrah's Philadelphia in Chester, Pennsylvania, against Jon Hill (6-4, 5 KOs), winning the fight via technical knockout in round 4.

Miller was fighting Joshua Harris, a last-minute replacement who was fighting up from cruiserweight to cruiserweight, at the Millennium Theater in Brighton Beach, New York, on May 5. Miller, who weighed in 50 pounds heavier, was knocked out and stopped Harris within two rounds. Miller had originally intended to combat Vincent Thompson, but he had been jailed prior to the contest for his involvement in six armed bank robberies. With this victory, Miller qualified for a vacant ten-round title showdown against Derric Rossy.

In November, Miller will face Rodricka Ray in a scheduled 6-round match. Miller was awarded by the judges' vote, 60–54, 59–55, and 59–55. Miller turned pro in California on January 1, 2015. Aaron Kinch, 35, was his enemy. Miller won a shutout victory 60–54, 60–54, and 60–53 as a whole six rounds came to an end.

Following his victory over David Rodriguez in 2014, Raymond Ochieng (26-18-3, 21 KOs) called out Miller. Miller accepted and the pair faced off in April 2015. Miller was able to win via first-round TKO. Miller then faced 41-year-old Damon McCreary (15-4, 11 KOs) on June 4 in a scheduled fight. Miller won the fight by a 2nd round stoppage after Miller gave McCormary a beating before he collapsed into the bottom ropes, allowing him to fall helplessly and defenseless in a sitting position. Miller had two more fights in 2015 and ended the year on a high note by keeping Excell Holmes and Akhror Muralimov within range.

Miller had his first fight of 2016 on January 23 at the Casino Del Sol in Tucson, Arizona, against Donovan Dennis (12-2, 10 KOs). Miller defeated Dennis at 2:31 of the seventh round, when the referee called the contest at 2:31. Miller called out then IBF champion Charles Martin, WBC champion Deontay Wilder, Unified world champion Tyson Fury, and Anthony Joshua in the post-fight interview. After Shannon Briggs was stripped of the title, Miller made a good showing as the NABA champion on February 1st.

Miller, who had been ranked WBO #11, WBA #12 and IBF #15, would face Nick Guivas (12-3-2, 9 KOs) in Niagara Falls, New York, on May 27 for the vacant WBO Heavyweight title, previously held by Charles Martin. Miller dominated Guivas in the 2nd round, leaving him undefeated. In the first round, Miller used power shots to knock him down four times. Referee Dick Pakozdi called the match officially ended at 1:26 of the 2nd round, with Miller winning the vacant trophy. Miller also ranked top heavyweights Wladimir Klitschko, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, and Deontay Wilder in a post-fight interview.

Miller will compete in ShoBox: The New Generation, according to Salita Promotions, on August 19 at the outdoor Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, New York, New York, on August 19. Fred Kassi, a veteran veteran of the United States, will face him in his biggest test to date (18-5-1, 10 KOs). "I'm going to put his lights out like everybody else" Miller, who is determined to keep Kassi within the distance. I know he's durable and a little older than me. He's a tough guy, and he's going to take a beating. He's only been stopped once so far. I'll be the second" in the country's second run-down. Miller weighed in at 296.5 pounds at the start of pro football, his highest weight since being pro. Miller came out on top after the match only lasted three rounds. After the third round, Kassi pleaded with his right hand and did not come out for the 4th round. Kassi got off to a promising start in the first round, executing his shots, but the remainder of the fight was a punch bag, with Miller unloaded with body shots. By defeating Kassi, Miller displayed his stubborn style.

Miller accused his promoter of breaking their employment in September 2016. Although nothing was disclosed, rumors arose that it was because of Miller's latest fight purses, where he said he had been underpaid. As Joseph Parker, the new WBO heavyweight champion, named him as a potential first defense alongside British boxers Hughie Fury and David Price, Miller began making noise in December 2016. Parker could make a voluntary defense after mandatory challenger David Haye decided to face fellow Brit Tony Bellew in a grudge match, according to the WBO. Miller, who was only fighting twice in 2016, said he was hoping for the right opportunity. Joseph Parker began screaming out and screaming that he would face him somewhere.

Miller will face former world champion Gerald Washington (18-1-1, 12 KOs) on the undercard of Garcia-Broner at the Barclays Center in New York on July 25, 2017 in a 10-round match, the first fight back after an 11-month layoff. Miller weighed in at 298.8 pounds, compared to when he defeated Wilder for the WBC championship in February 2017. After the weigh in, the match was tense, with Miller trash-talking Washington who never did any garbage-talking back. As the face off was broken up, Miller threw his promotional cap to Washington.

Miller collapsed over eight rounds in Washington, eventually causing the corner and referee to be halted. Washington had a solid start to the tournament, but Miller took over land power shots and resulted in severe discipline. Washington suffered his second straight stoppage loss. Showtime Sports general manager Stephen Espinoza praised Miller and said he might soon be seen on 'Showtime Championship Boxing.' "I knew there would be a give and take in this fight," Miller said after the war and called Washington a warrior. It's one thing to fight when you're pumped, but it's another to fight when you're drained. I was trying to out-think him [...] Gerald was a jerk. It was a good fight that had me thinking. My electricity was there. Starting off from a layoff, I took the difficult route back. Gerald certainly pushed me and inspired me. "I had to rely on my brain and my strength." Miller received a $70,000 reward for the win, while Washington earned $50,000.

Miller will co-feature alongside fellow New York fighter Daniel Jacobs on a card that will be held at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, on September 24, 2017. This will be the second festival at the Coliseum since it re-opened in July 2017. No function had been held there since 1986 or 1985, prior to that date. Mariusz Wachter, a 37-year-old former world champion, (33-2, 17 KOs), would be Miller's opponent for his HBO debut. Miller weighed 283.4 pounds, meaning he'd shed weight rather than gain it, as he had in his last two fights. Wach weighed in at 268 pounds, making him the heaviest opponent Miller had ever encountered.

In the ninth round, Miller defeated Wach by TKO, bringing him one step closer to a potential world championship match. Miller had a longer time than expected as Wach pressed him several times. During the ninth round, the match was called off by the referee and Wach's corner due to Wach's hand injury. Wacht's start-up had been a struggle for him in the early rounds, but it got worse to the point where Wachter was no longer using his right hand from round 7 — rather for occasional shots. Wach was unable to hold back Miller due to the injury. At 1:02 of round nine, the ringside doctor called the fight to a halt.

“The next fight on the table for me that makes sense is Dillian Whyte or Joseph Parker,” Miller said in a post-fight interview. Since who are they fighting? Parker defeated Hughie Fury, a person I know does not deserve a championship shot. Whyte is not a mandatory [for WBC champion Deontay Wilder]. I believe Dillian Whyte should come and confront me. It'd be a good fight, and then the champion of the tournament will be AJ or Deontay," he said of Wach. The most important thing was to try and hold his chest. Because this wasn't my best show and I was lighter, I gave myself a star rating. Miller landed 204 of 620 punches (33 percent), while Wacht landed 95 of 328 (29%). Miller's debut on HBO attracted 673,000 viewers and a record of 739,000 viewers.

Miller said in a Sky Sports interview on Monday that he would face fellow New York boxer Trevor Bryan (19-0, 13 KOs) on April 28 at the Barclays Center in New York on HBO. Miller believed he should be in line for a world championship battle. “Yes, we're working on Trevor Bryan," Miller said, but his promoter is Don King, who is not the easiest to work with,” the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, announced on April 28. Duhaupas was ranked #7 by the WBA, #8 by the WBC, and #13 at heavyweight by the IBF. Miller weighed in at 30414 pounds, which was 21 pounds heavier than his previous fights. Duhaupas weighed 244.2 pounds. The festival attracted 7,892 people. Miller defeated Duhaupas in a one-sided fight that took place on the 12 round distance for the first time as a professional, winning by 119–109, 119–109, and 117–111. Miller was mainly the aggressor, not allowing Duhaupas to receive much ridicule. When he did let his hands go, Duhaupas landed clean sometimes. Miller made 261 of 782 total punches (33.4 percent), 185 being power punches, compared to Duhaupas' 128 landed of his 538 (23.8%), with 67 being power shots. Miller, according to reports, became the WBA's most difficult challenger with the win. After the match, Miller said he wanted Joshua to fight him in Brooklyn. The fight attracted 706,000 viewers and topped 834,000 on HBO.

Miller and Kubrat Pulev (25-1, 13 KOs), the IBF ordered a final eliminator between Miller and Kubrat Pulev (25-1, 13 KOs), with a purse auction taking place on June 25. The winner will be Anthony Joshua's IBF champion, and he will face him in the IBF championships. Epic Sports & Entertainment won the drawing price of $2,111,111,111, much more than Team Sauerland's $1,000,010 figure. Miller will be earning his most money, $527,777.75 US dollars, as a result of his bid. According to Epic Sports, the contracts were delivered within two days of the purse auction. No agreement had been made by 2 July. Miller's camp had stalled, most likely due to the Bulgarian war. While Miller's promoter Dmitry Salita confirmed that talks were still underway, the biggest obstacle was the location. Miller had 15 days from when he was hired to sign, to agree, or the IBF will fall back to the top of the charts, according to IBF public relations director Jeanette Salazar. Hughie Fury, the next top challenger at the time, was named at #5 by the IBF in June, and at that moment. Pulev and Miller's talks came to an end on July 10.

After it was announced that Miller's next fight was scheduled in Chicago, a town with a large Polish population, Tomasz Adamek (53-53, 31 KOs), spoke of his desire to confront Miller on August 2, 2018. Artur Szpilka was also a name given, but there were rumors that he would face Mariusz Wach. The match was a mismatch, according to ESPN's Dan Rafael and others close to Hearn. The match was later revealed to be taking place at a 10,000-capacity Wintrust Arena in Chicago on October 6, 2018. After knocking out Adamek in round 2, Miller stayed in contention for a world championship match. Miller weighed in at 317 pounds, his heaviest on record compared to Adamek who weighed 227 pounds. Miller knocked Adamek down with a left and then hitting a series of power shots to put him down on one knee. Adamek was given a count by the referee and decided not to return to his feet. Miller stalked Adamek around the ring in round 1, hitting him with hard body and head shots. Adamek was unable to maintain a distance.

Miller's handlers knew he would not be allowed to shoot Anthony Joshua in April 2019, so they concentrated their attention on the WBA'regular' belt. Manuel Charr's belt was not yet vacant when he failed drugs test, but Miller's co-promoter Greg Cohen said he would certainly face 45-year-old boxer Fres Oquendo or WBA 'interim' champion Trevor Bryan. Miller was offered a term of up-to-bear's belt at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on October 19, a new deal was agreed for him to face Oquendo (37-8, 24 KOs). Since winning a legal battle against then belt-holder Ruslan Chagaev, Oquendo, who last fought in 2014, he was legally owes a WBA'regular' title opportunity. According to ESPN, Oquendo, who was expected to have made $500,000 fighting Miller, fought off the war because there was not enough time to properly implement Voluntary Anti-Doping Association tests for performance-enhancing drugs.' Bogdan Dinu, a Romanian boxer, accepted fight Miller on the same day. Dinu was ranked #9 by the WBA and #53 by the IBF at heavyweight. The card will be held at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas, during a press conference two days later. Top Rank's Bob Arum predicted that he would write a letter to the WBA advising them that Bryant Jennings would be available and not skipped. Jennings was ranked #7 by the WBA at the time, ahead of Dinu, who was ranked #9, ahead of Dinu. Miller weighed 31514 pounds, 78 pounds more than Dinu, who came in at 2371 pounds. Miller knocked Dinu down and out for the 10-count in round 4 of their scheduled 12-round match after making a pre-fight pick that he would win the fight within 5 rounds. Miller's second victory in less than six weeks was a result of the contest. The first three rounds were highly contested. Dinu was able to land his jab but backed off a little after feeling Miller's might have been too strong. Miller said after the brawl, he wanted to fight a British boxer in 2019. Miller shot 54 punches of 204 (27%), this included 35 power shots and Dinu landed 69 of 240 punches (29%), with 39 jabs landing.

In February 2019, Miller was announced as Anthony Joshua's next challenge, as well as the IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles at Madison Square Garden in June 2019. Miller tested positive for GW501516 ahead of the contest, causing the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) to refuse him a license to box. Further tests revealed positive results for EPO and HGH. Miller was banned from the game. The NYSAC could not take discipline for the failed tests because he wasn't licensed at the time, other than refusing to renew the license. Miller was nonetheless suspended from the WBA for six months and booted him from the top of the charts. Miller did not have to box during this time because he may not have applied for a license in another state, despite not being banned by the NYSAC). However, any fight scheduled by the WBA would not have been sanctioned.

Following the WBA's suspension, he was supposed to return to his ring against Jerry Forrest on July 9, 2020 at the MGM Grand Conference Center in Paradise, Nevada. Miller had yet again failed a pre-fight drug screening, resulting in positive results for the banned drug GW501516. On July 2, he received a suspension by the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC), with the suspension being postponed by an NAC five-member committee at their monthly commission hearing on August 5.

Kickboxing career

Miller began kickboxing at the age of 14. When representing the New Jersey Tigers in the World Combat League in the 2007–08 season, he had a break out appearance as a kickboxer. He defeated K-1 veteran Pat Barry at the WCL Eastern & Western Conference Finals in San Antonio, Texas, on May 3, 2008, the highest achievement of his career to that date. Miller had an amateur kickboxing record of 14–0, 7 KO's.

Miller continued to post a 19-0 (8 KOs) record as a professional kickboxer on New York's heavyweight Muay Thai scene while also turning professional as a boxer after WCL's demise.

His exploits earned him followers, and he recruited K-1, the world's best kickboxing company, in 2012 after he knocked out Radu Spinghel in New York City.

He faced mixed martial arts knockout artist Jack May at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 in Los Angeles on September 8, 2012, winning a spot in the 2012 K-1 World Grand Prix. Miller was able to knock May out with an uppercut in the first round of the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 in Tokyo, where he was drawn against Arnold Oborotov. Despite the fact that Oborotov caused some issues with his low kicks, Miller was able to dominate due to his superb boxing skills. After leaving the Lithuanians on the canvas in round one, he cruised to a unanimous decision triumph.

He defeated Mirko Cro Cop in the quarterfinals at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 Final in Zagreb, Croatia, on March 15, 2013. The jury of judges decided by unanimous vote, condemning Miller's first professional defeat and sending him out of the tournament.

In August 2013, he signed with SUPERKOMBAT. Miller defeated Mirko Cro Cop at Glory 17: Inglewood, California, on June 21, 2014. Replacing Sergei Kharitonov, who suffered from the fight due to a finger injury, Miller rematched Mirko Cro Cop at Glory 17: Los Angeles. He was disqualified by a unanimous decision. Miller had a career kickboxing record of 22–2, 10 KO's.

Miller was banned from nine months by the California State Athletic Commission in 2014 after methylhexaneamine was discovered in a urine sample he gave for Glory 17: Los Angeles.

He's white as a motherf***er.' He's my God brother!' Miller asked one officer if they could'handcuff me to the front' because he obviously didn't think he'd fit into the backseat as escorted toward the back of the police cruiser.
