Heavyweight contender, Jarrell Miller, hopes to be Anthony Joshua’s last opponent ever should they face in 2024.
Joshua recently booked his ring return for December 23 in Saudi Arabia. Despite hoping to face Deontay Wilder at the end of the year, the two will instead return on the same night.
In the main event, the British boxer will face Otto Wallin. Meanwhile, the co-main event will see ‘The Bronze Bomber’ face former champion Joseph Parker.
While most of the focus is on the top two names, the card itself is stacked.
Another name slated to return would be Miller. Miller is in the midst of his long-awaited comeback after missing years of his career due to drug test failures. He famously failed a test prior to a scheduled 2019 clash with Joshua.
Speaking to TalkSport, Miller admitted that he was eyeing a title fight in 2024 after a win over Daniel Dubois. However, he still is hoping to face the British-Nigerian in the future.
“Right now my main focus is Dubois, knocking his behind out. Then, coming back on that February 13th on Usyk vs. Tyson Fury, if that’s going to happen. Hopefully get (Mahmoud) Charr for that title. But if not Charr, I would to get ‘AJ’ and retire him.”
Joshua is currently booked, same as Miller, for December 23. However, neither man has any obligations beyond their fight next month in Saudi Arabia.
The two-time champion has been in talks with Deontay Wilder throughout most of this year. However, talks with ‘The Bronze Bomber’ fell apart when discussing a clash for December. Instead, they booked fights with different opponents.
