Jarrel Miller has had an unusual career, to say the least. He is massive, but fast. His early career started in kickboxing, which helped him to become formidable in the ring very quickly. ‘Big Baby’ will be fighting on the undercard against Daniel Dubois. However, Miller has not hesitated to trash-talk anyone in the line-up on the 23rd. This, in part, has helped his current fight against Dubois on ‘The Day of Reckoning’ to get sufficient hype all around the world.
For Miller, this fight is a way for him to reach the top, to fight big names again. For Dubois, this fight is a redemption, a comeback fight after his stoppage loss against champion Oleksandr Usyk. The weigh-in results of the fight were posted on the social media platform X. The results shocked almost everyone. Let’s see the different reactions people had to the results.
