Eddie Hearn has revealed what went down between him and Jarrell Miller when the two went head-to-head at the December 23 press conference last month.
Miller was supposed to fight Anthony Joshua for the Brit’s IBF, WBO and WBA heavyweight titles at Madison Square Garden on June 1, 2020.
However, Miller failed a series of Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) tests in late March and served a six-month ban as a result.
Hearn made the decision to move on from Miller – who tested positive for human growth hormone, EPO and GW1516 – and set Joshua up with Andy Ruiz instead.
Miller has never forgiven Hearn for walking away from him and made his feelings known at last month’s press conference in London.

The pair came face-to-face for the first time in years as both AJ and Miller are set to fight on the December 23 card in Saudi Arabia.
Joshua will be taking on Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin, while Miller will be looking to make a statement against Daniel Dubois.
Miller decided to confront Hearn at the press conference and asked the Matchroom promoter why he never supported him like he did with Conor Benn.
Speaking to Seconds Out about the conversation they had, Hearn said: ‘Miller came up to me and he said, oh you’re scared now.
‘I went, ‘I ain’t f***ing scared of you. I know what you did.’
‘He went, ‘Why didn’t you back me like you backed Conor Benn?’
‘I said, ‘Because I don’t believe you.’
‘And he said, ‘Well next time when you’re in New York, I’ll have someone pull up on you.’
‘And I said, ‘Go f*** yourself.”
Hearn wasn’t the only person Miller confronted that evening. He also took aim at Joshua while on stage, claiming he would send the British heavyweight to the hospital.

‘They can all kiss my black ass,’ Miller began. ‘We all know for a start that AJ don’t want no smoke with Deontay. As much as I don’t like Deontay, I know he would put that motherf***** in the grave.
‘So I’ll make it easy for you Joshua – either fight Deontay and go to the grave, or fight me, and go to the hospital.’
Joshua was quick to snap back at Miller, saying: ‘Shut the f*** up. Miller, don’t start with me. You know I’ll come over and slap you.’
The 34-year-old British heavyweight went to on to speak about Miller’s mother after referencing her at their last press conference in 2020. He said: ‘I see you’ve brought your mum here, she needs her rent paid.’
Joshua finished by saying: ‘You’re not doing nothing to me. Watch your mouth, or I’ll slap it for you.’
After the press conference, Miller shared that he was happy to ‘be a bully’ and planned on doing so ‘all day and all night’.
