The heavyweight clash between contender Jarrell Miller and Michael Hunter was a deal that was completed in Las Vegas on September 11. This will be part of Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford Battle Week.
Ring magazine x The report said that news of the Miller Hunter fight will be completed on September 11. Miller (26-1-2, 22 KOS) was initially scheduled to fight Jared Anderson, but he quit this week. #6 WBA Miller wants Deontay Wilder to be the replacement, but he refuses.
Hunter Return Relevance
Hunter (24-1-2, 17 KOS) was ranked No. 1 WBA, #7 IBF. Many of his fans have forgotten him since his 12-round draw against Alexander Povetkin in 2019.
Since then, the 2012 Olympic Hunter has been busy, but his opposition is strictly low. This prevented him from being seen on the main card. To remain relevant, the fighters need to face famous opponents, and Hunter does not.

It’s hard to predict the winner of Miller’s battle with Hunter. Miller, 36, hasn’t won the fight for two years and hasn’t been regarded as one of the most important heavyweights in the department. He missed a huge payday opportunity for Anthony Joshua in 2019, when he tested positive for banned substances.
If he had participated in this battle, he would have made a lot of money and probably defeated him. Instead, Andy Ruiz fought and eliminated AJ. He fought millions of dollars in two battles with Joshua.
Canelo vs. Crawford Fight Week
Canelo vs. Crawford’s trump card should be used to highlight new talents. Hunter and Miller are older fighters. Turki Alalshikh obviously wanted to include famous warriors to attract fans who want to see young talents.
