“You can run but you can’t hide”: Anthony Joshua sent warning by heavyweight rival

“You can run but you can’t hide”: Anthony Joshua sent warning by heavyweight rival

One of Anthony Joshua‘s most fierce rivals has sent a warning to the British heavyweight.

Joshua is expected to fight twice this year, first in a warm-up in the summer and then in a long-awaited showdown against Tyson Fury towards the end of the calendar.

‘AJ’ has boxed only once since a devastating knockout defeat to Daniel Dubois back in September 2024, with that solitary outing coming in an uncompetitive six round stoppage win against YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.

However, following the comeback of ‘The Gypsy King’ earlier this month, all signs are pointing to one of the biggest fights in the history of British boxing, with Fury vs Joshua now back on the cards and reportedly nearing an agreement.

First, Joshua hopes to shake off any ring rust by returning to fight in the summer, but he will presumably pick an opponent whom he does not believe can scupper plans for a Fury fight, but also one that properly motivates him.

Therefore, Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller could make for the perfect dance partner given their rivalry which was birthed ahead of their scheduled meeting in 2019, before Miller tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs.

Speaking to Matchroom, with whom Miller has recently teamed up with, the American told Joshua that he is going to get ‘whooped’ sooner or later.

“[Your] a** whooping gon’ come sooner or later. You can run, but you can’t hide.”

Miller fights Cuba’s Lenier Pero on Saturday night, in his first outing since signing with Eddie Hearn’s promotional outfit.
