In the high-stakes world of professional boxing, confrontations aren’t limited to the ring. A recent backstage exchange between Eddie Hearn, a renowned promoter, and Jarrell Miller, a heavyweight boxer, breaks this norm. Imagine a heated dialogue, laced with threats and fearless retorts, away from the public’s eye.

At the recent press conference for Day of Reckoning, the atmosphere was thick with anticipation for the upcoming heavyweight bouts featuring Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. However, it was the behind-the-scenes exchange between Eddie Hearn and Jarrell Miller that captured the hidden drama of the boxing world.

According to what Hearn told Seconds Out, as the event concluded, Miller approached Hearn. The British promoter then went on to narrate the entire exchange between them. “He came up to me and he said, ‘Oh, you’re scared now,'” Hearn recounted, setting the stage for an intense dialogue.

Hearn, known for his sharp wit, quickly dismissed Miller’s provocation. “I ain’t f***ing scared of you. I know what you did,” he retorted. This response reflects Hearn’s awareness of Miller’s controversial past, including failed drug tests that have marred his boxing career. The conversation escalated as Miller pressed on, questioning Hearn’s loyalty. “Why didn’t you back me like you backed Conor Benn?” Hearn recalled.

The promoter’s reply was terse and unequivocal. “Because I don’t believe you,” Hearn stated, his disbelief in Miller’s innocence clear and unwavering. Miller’s reaction took a more menacing turn, implying a threat for future encounters. “Well, next time when you’re in New York, I’ll have someone pull up on you,” Hearn recalled being warned.

Unfazed by the threat, Hearn delivered a final, dismissive blow. “And I said, ‘Go f**k yourself,'” he revealed. This exchange, brimming with tension and unresolved issues, highlights the complexities and often strained relationships in the boxing industry, especially between promoters and fighters.
