Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller: Don’t let my weight fool you…I’m in really good shape

 

BOXING NEWS-By Fightnews.com

Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller (17-0-1, 15 KOs) faces his toughest test to date in veteran Fred Kassi (18-5-1, 10 KOs) tonight on Showtime in the main event at Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, NY. Despite weighing in at a career high of 296.5 pounds, Miller says he’s in great shape. “I’m a big guy, but I’m athletic,” said Miller. “I can move. I can punch, and I was a kickboxer. I’m not your average heavyweight. I’m not trying to change the blueprint of how heavyweights should be. I’m just being myself and doing my job.”

“They are like, ‘we’ve seen his body, we’ve seen his size. We’ll outwork him,’ but they are wrong. Never can judge a book by its cover. I’ll outwork him in the ring. I’m fast, I’m good and I can punch. He’s not going to see me coming.

“Don’t let my weight fool you. I’ve been doing cardio. I’m in really good shape and I’m ready to go the distance.”
