Fabio Wardley Vs. Jarrell Miller Promises To Be Explosive – ‘I Will Knock Him Out’
Fabio Wardley will box Jarrell Miller on June 7 in a heavyweight clash for the WBA ‘interim’ title.
Wardley will fight from Ipswich Town’s Portman Road football stadium in front of his home fans. He arrives into the fight with a devastating KO win over Frazer Clarke last October. The win extended his undefeated record to 18-0-1. He then vacated his British title in the hope of securing a world title moving forward. He was meant to face off against Kubrat Pulev; however, Miller will now get his shot.
Miller has not been in the ring since he secured a draw with Andy Ruiz in a fight where many felt Ruiz should have won. That result followed after his 2023 stoppage loss to Daniel Dubois. He was linked with a Derek Chisora fight, but the latter ended up facing Otto Wallin. The winner will take a massive step in securing a world title shot.
Wardley Vs. Miller
“He’s [Miller] a top 10 contender, he’s challenged with the big boys before, and I’m in that world title race and I want to prove myself against one of those top-level guys. “I think he’s a perfect fit for that because he brings energy and he brings the fight in simple terms.”You know what you’re going to get from him. You’re going to get the entertainment factor and that’s something that I bring and he brings. The clash of us together is going to be chaotic,” Wardley stated
“As a proud Tractor Boy born and bred in Ipswich, this is a dream come true for me. “Fighting for a world title at Portman Road means everything to me. I’ve got a tough opponent in front of me, but that’s what I live for. I’m ready to dig deep, go to battle, and leave it all in the ring. It’s going to be a war, and I can’t wait to give my hometown crowd a spectacle they’ll never forget,” Wardley added
“Imma knock him out, six, seven rounds maybe eight. I’m definitely going to stop him though. Imma f**k him up real good,” Miller stated
Further Reaction
“On a personal note, it is a huge pleasure for me to deliver Fabio his dream of fighting at Portman Road. It is what he has spoken about from day one of our alliance and I know how much Ipswich Town means to him. I believe this is the perfect fight for Fabio to take his next step because Miller is no easy pickings for anyone, especially given his size and front foot style.
“Fabio really is ‘Running Towards Adversity. Fabio and I have been discussing a Portman Road fight for the best part of nearly four years. So, I’m delighted that we’ve managed to get this fight over the line and give Fabio the opportunity for a homecoming world title fight at Portman Road,” Frank Warren stated
