    It’s a good match, Miller is undefeated and highly rated and this should be a fun fight.

    I think this is a good style match up for Joshua and he ends up stopping Miller in the second half of an entertaining fight.

    I love that Joshua is facing top fighters. This would be 4 of the current top 10(Povetkin, Miller, Parker, and Whyte) he’s faced and since Wilder-Fury are tied up with each other he’s facing the best of the rest aside from Ortiz.

    My big complaint about Joshua is the 2 fight a year schedule. He’s a star at his peak he should be out there 3 times a year minimum even if he has to squeeze a lower level guy in between his big fights

    I can understand why he'd fight twice a year sometimes. But he certainly didn't need to take nine months off to prepare Jarrell Miller. Joshua fought in September. Miller fought the corpse of Adamek in early October.

    Instead of matching Miller with Bogdan, these two could've fought in January in the U.S. and Hearn still could've kept his April date at Wembley with Joshua.

    Miller is rated and all, but style-wise and size-wise he's just a target for Joshua. This fight shouldn't last too long.

    Seems like a long gap between fights for someone like Miller, considering Joshua will likely come right back four months later after Miller.

    Yet has offered an undeserved rematch Claus in the states and did Joshua tell Fury not to sign Hearns 3 fight plan and then face him , Fury having fought two killers instead in Pianeta and that other guy ? He also was going to fight Wlad in Vegas for the rematch , the only fighter that's been protected in the states , mostly Barclays center is Wilder . LOL

    What gibberish are you spouting now ? Joshua didn't target Miller for 9 months , he gave Wilder counteless opportunities since the Povetkin fight which was 5 months ago not 9. The idea was to get Wilder to agree to a April 13 date or Whyte both got cold feet . Miller wasn't specifically targeted ? :roto2palm:

    You truly are a Wilder fan , no doubt about that. As logical as a turtle entering a 40 yard dash .

    Joshua fought in September. He's fighting Miller in June. That's nine months.

    He could've fought Miller in January. There was nothing stopping it. Miller didn't "have" to fight Bogdan. Joshua fought Povetkin and Miller fought Adamek a couple weeks apart last fall. They both could've had a three-month camp and fought at the end of January.

    Joshua wasn't going to fight Wilder or Fury right away when they were facing each other in December.

    What's he been doing since September? He's in his prime.

    Deontay Wilder will have faced Tyson Fury TWO TIMES before Joshua gets back in the ring.

    That's too long.

    Joshua looks like Gumby next to Miller. It’ll be interesting to see if his stamina holds up while getting pressured and ragdolled in clinches.

    Whats the rush? You have no problem with Wilder and his career and hes done 1 quarter of what Joshua has done and in twice the time. So Wilder fans shouldnt have a problem with Joshua going on a bum killing streak for 20 fights now, Maybe take on a load of unknown fattened up Cruiserweights with losing records, that gives Wilder some time to build his name and maybe become something more than a clear B side, Joshua has done that work already maybe he can slow down a bit while Wilder gives it a go.
