He was just at MSG for the Whyte/Chisora fight. I guess it's resolved.

Miller does his best work in close when his opponent allow him to sit on them

Yeah, you're right. I had his "in-ring promo" on my mind from Whyte/Chisora. Thanks!

Suppose if he did fall on him . Aj will be glad of all them bench press repetitions .

Anthony Joshua’s World Heavyweight title clash with Jarrell Miller at Madison Square Garden is already the hottest ticket in New York after becoming the highest grossing pre-sale for a boxing event at the famous arena.

Joshua defends his WBA Super, IBF, WBO and IBO crowns against Miller on June 1 in the Big Apple, live on DAZN in the US and on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK – and fight fans showed their appetite to see the Briton make his American debut in the backyard of the unbeaten Brooklynite, breaking the highest grossing pre-sale in MSG boxing history inside two hours of the midday on-sale.

Tickets go on general sale at midday on Tuesday February 19 following Monday’s pre-sale for Matchroom Fight Pass members, and fans hoping to snap up the chance to see the World’s premier Heavyweight lock horns with the dangerous ‘Big Baby’ should move fast on Tuesday to avoid missing out on this blockbuster night.

“We know that AJ is a huge box office hit in the UK but to break the pre-sale record at the iconic Madison Square Garden is astounding,” said promoter Eddie Hearn. “We are building a huge event on June 1 and we look forward to the all the build-up beginning with next Tuesdays press conference in New York.”

“We are thrilled with the early excitement for tickets,” said Joel Fisher, executive vice president, MSG Marquee Events. “Anthony Joshua versus Jarrell Miller will be an epic event at Madison Square Garden and we encourage fans to purchase tickets now because this fight will sell out.”

Personally I think it's a brilliant piece of work, on paper Miller is tailor made for Joshua to look like the most destructive heavyweight on the planet, slow, leaden footed, and predictable, of course we've seen other heavyweight champs come unstuck, but Joshua seems very committed to coming into every fight in great shape, and he should go through Miller like , well, Miller, going through a box of krispy kremes.

If the truth made you rich, there would be no need for promoters.

^ agreed, think Joshua will let combinations off at will will probably be a wide points decision (don't think its possible to knock a 320lb man out cold)

Hearn posted this.. trying to get fans back on side

You’re right. AJ is not a one punch KO artist.

He generally works his opponents down.

Joshua’s resume does absolutely piss over both Fury & Wilder’s. He’s also much much better to watch.

Totally agree with you. This guy has fought absolutely nobody, it's an embarrassing fight. The build up will make out Miller to be the greatest thing since Mike Tyson. No stone will be left unturned to sell and fool the masses.

So you think that being fat protects you from being knocked out?

He'll get battered inside 4 rounds, Miller has fought absolutely nobody, and Joshua certainly hit harder than anybody else he has fought.

God almightly, do you not understand what the purpose of this fight is? It's just to showcase Joshua for an American audience. This really is nothing more than a build up fight. It's called promoting.

Err. why is wlad left off of Fury's resume?

It’s first 23 fights. When did he fight Wlad?

Absolutely it is. It is also called having to take the only fight available which makes even a small bit of sense at the moment.

I am not interested because I have fallen off the hype train and fed up with AJ and Hearn and would just like to see them get what would be, for me personally, their comeuppance.

I will tell you what, if AJ takes a couple L's and struggling to get back to the top, Matchroom could be in a lot of trouble with all the alternatives and other platforms. They no longer have a monopoly and are no longer the only viable option for boxers.

I'm sticking with Joshua on points pal, I agree fat doesn't stop you being knocked out but the sod just moves his big ol' frame forward all night - should be fun eh? haha!
