Boxer punched his wig off

Boxer Jarrell Miller had a humorous mishap but still defeated Kingsley Ibeh in a heavyweight boxing match in New York.

The incident occurred at the end of round two during the fight at Madison Square Garden on the night of 31/1. Ibeh cornered Miller against the ropes and unleashed a flurry of punches. A powerful blow snapped Miller's head back, dislodging his wig to reveal a bald spot. This moment drew laughter from many spectators in the stands.

Miller finished the round with his wig still dangling on his head. During the break between rounds, he removed the wig entirely and tossed it into the stands, receiving loud cheers.

DAZN commentator Chris Mannix exclaimed, "I've never seen anything like that in boxing."

Miller appeared quite comfortable with the awkward situation, while Ibeh also showed surprise. This unexpected incident became the most notable highlight of a match that was not highly regarded for its technical skill.

After ten rounds, Miller won by a narrow referee's decision. As the results were announced, the American boxer celebrated while rubbing his scalp.

Following the match, Miller explained that he suffered severe hair loss just a few days prior due to mistakenly using "ammonia bleach" found at his mother's house instead of shampoo. "I like to make people laugh. You have to know how to turn such things into a joke," Miller said.

The moment Jarrell Miller's wig was punched off.

Born on 15/7/1988 in Brooklyn, New York, Miller grew up in a multi-ethnic family. His mother has belizean and irish heritage, while his father has haitian-french and dominican republican roots. Consequently, Miller holds belizean, french, and haitian nationalities by family lineage.

Miller started boxing at 14, viewing it as a means of self-defense after being attacked on the streets. Two years later, he began training in muay thai before pursuing parallel careers in boxing and kickboxing. In his early stages, Miller was influenced by heavyweight icons such as Mike Tyson and Riddick Bowe.

In his professional boxing career, Miller held the NABA and NABO heavyweight titles from 2016-2017. He also secured notable victories against former world champions like Tomasz Adamek and Lucas Browne. Before fully focusing on boxing, Miller competed in kickboxing at major events such as WCL, K-1, and Glory.

At 37, Miller is a controversial figure in the heavyweight boxing scene. He was scheduled to challenge Anthony Joshua at Madison Square Garden in 2019 but was removed from the title fight after failing doping tests. Joshua later suffered a shocking loss to Andy Ruiz Jr in one of the biggest upsets in heavyweight boxing history.
