Daniel Dubois May Make A Comeback Against Jarrell Miller.

Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, who are scheduled to compete separately before potentially facing each other in 2024, will headline the heavyweight bill in the Middle East, which could feature Jarrell Miller and Daniel Dubois.

“Thank you, Daniel Dubois, for being the dummy to sign the contract, because I’m gonna beat yo’ ass,” said Jarrell Miller in media reports. 

“There’s a saying we have in New York, we smell bitch in him. Once the bitch is in you, it ain’t going nowhere,” he added.

“He quit against Joe Joyce. He got beat up and knocked out by a jab by [two-division champ Oleksandr] Usyk. Those are small guys. Well, Joyce is big but he ain’t Big Baby big,” he continued.

In the tenth round of their bout in November 2020, Dubois(19 -2, 18KOs) from Greenwich, London prevailed via full ten count over Joyce. His four knockout victories in four rounds were facilitated by a damaged eye socket that necessitated surgery before he could recover. 

Among them was a victory over undefeated Trevor Bryan via fourth-round knockout to secure the WBA “Regular” heavyweight title on June 11 in Miami, Florida.

He looks to make a big name as during his most recent heavyweight tour, Miller (26-0-1, 22KOs), 35 from Brooklyn, New York embraced the move up in class.

Since making his ring comeback after a 43-month absence owing to consecutive drug test scandals, Miller has a 3-0 record. After winning twice in less than 30 days last summer, he decided to sit out the remainder of the season in order to focus on bigger games.

Miller defeated Lucas Browne in the sixth round of his most recent start, which took place in Dubai on March 18. He had previously been in negotiations to challenge Mahmoud Charr in a WBA “Regular” championship bout, but he chose to focus on the much more lucrative and well-known bout against Dubois.

“When you’re fighting a mean guy who’s throwing 80 punches a round, got a good chin, come forward and don’t quit… I’m kicking his ass and sending him to early retirement. Plain and simple,” said Miller.
