quot , BREAKING: Heavyweight contender Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller has tested positive for the banned substance GW1516 ahead his scheduled challenge of unified world titleholder Anthony Joshua, three sources with knowledge of the results told ESPN on Tuesday night. The fight is due to take place on June 1 at New York’s Madison Square Garden and serve as Joshua’s American debut. The results, which came to light on Tuesday, were from a random Voluntary Anti-Doping Association-conducted urine test Miller submitted to on March 20. Ironically, Mille accused Joshua of using PEDs during their press tour to announce the fight.
GW1516 is about as blatant of a performance enhancer as it gets. I’ll give it about day for more reports to roll in, but if this is true Miller’ll never live this down, dude’s been accusing Joshua of taking steroids for years. He got lucky with getting his title shot as well, I’m not sure he can secure another.
Miller has to be banned. Eddie had a replacement lined up in Takam when AJ was due to fight Pulev, hopefully he has someone lined up to replace Miller.
