Comments Thread For: Jarrell Miller won't fight Derek Chisora as promotional dispute continues

[PBR Streetgang]

I'm never inclined to believe anything that comes out of Miller's mouth however, on the other hand, Salita seems very underwhelming as a promoter. I've seen plenty of fighters under his promotion languish with inactivity and underwhelming career development.

Based on the way they flipped this article Jarrell Miller you can't win, they have you as a dope fein criminal and people will go with their story over yours plus look at yourself you are a big black dude! I'm just saying.................

"YoU ArE a BiG bLaCK DuDe" Seriously you crybaby????

"THEY" have you as a dope (It's FIEND not "fein")? Yeah that's because he IS. Multiple failed drug tests (THREE separate times). Carja@ing. Burglary with assault (body slammed the dealership employee). Possession of a firearm under the couch (with a bullet in the chamber while four kids were on said couch). 10 grams of coc@ine in his shorts. Endangering the welfare four children. Second firearm found in his vehicle. I mean who is anybody to judge this poor black man? Maybe there's a good reason no one believes what he says. And if he's actually telling the truth (he already lost almost 5 million in one lawsuit with Salita already) maybe he has himself to blame.

this is not a disapointment to most fight fans if it is give it time they will resurrect another story line and try to keep their names out there.

A promoter suing his fighter for failing a drug test and getting a judgement of millions of dollars is definitely a first.

Salita seems like an extremely shady character.

Why would Miller turn down a fight with Chisora ? - he'd make good money and it's winnable

Why does Salita seem shady? The fight vs AJ would have been huge, being the UK vs the US for the unified HW championship. Miller's fat ass ruined the biggest payday that he will never see by getting popped with three, count 'em, THREE banned substances. Given the fact that Salita lost big on that fight too, totally justifies his lawsuit of Miller. Given what we see here and what has been reported before, it seems clear that Jarrell Miller is the person of poor character. He's a fuckin' bum.

Meh....I suppose so.
But he's not shooting for citizen of the year, is he?

Carlos Monzon, Kid McCoy, Billy Papke, Jack Blackburn and Don King make 5 murderers who have been enshrined in the esteemed International Boxing Hall of Fame.

In hindsight, I can't see Anthony Joshua surviving against Miller. Josh would've caught a break there, too; if they'd been able to locate a substitute who didn't knock Joshua TFO.

I believe that the use of the term "the unified HW championship", which means "more than one plastic sanctioning body belt", but erroneously IMPLIES "undisputed", is itself shady.

The title(s) that Ruiz Jr ripped from Joshua was neither undisputed nor Lineal (real). In fact, it belonged to the least of the three kings at that time.

I disagree. At that time, Joshua was at his peak in confidence of his power and skill. If Miller would have beaten him, it would have been because of all the PEDs flowing through his veins. Joshua was over-confident vs Ruiz and underestimated his toughness and determination. He looked across the ring and saw a short, fat Mexican, instead of a hungry and potentially dangerous fighter that should have been taken seriously.

Now we get Chisora vs Otto Wallin. A comedown from Miller vs. Chisora.
