JARRELL MILLER weighed over 23 STONE for his exhibition on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard – and wants to fight Tyson Fury next.
The American faces Las Vegas-based undefeated heavyweight Antonio Zepeda tomorrow night in Florida.
Jarrell Miller weighing in for his exhibition bout against Antonio Zepeda
The bill is being headlined by boxing legend Mayweather, who faces John Gotti III, grandson of the notorious mob boss.
Miller, 34, made his mark when tipping the scales as 325lb (23st 2lb) and made it clear he is setting his sights on Fury, 34.
He said: “I’ll do kickboxing, MMA, I chef it up, I do anything to stay busy. So we’re going to go in there and have some fun.
“He’s a young, hungry guy, I’m still young, still hungry and we’re looking for Tyson Fury after this.
“So we’re just gonna go in there, have some fun and put on an entertaining show.
“I’m gonna go and do what I do, cook some cheeseburgers.”
Miller returns in his fourth fight since his doping scandal which cost him a mega-money payday against Anthony Joshua in 2019.
A series of failed drug tests saw his world title bout scrapped and reputation in tatters.

Miller blamed the failed tests on a tainted supplement and stem cell shots in his elbow.
He then received a contract with Bob Arum’s Top Rank stable but again tested positive for a banned substance.
This time the former kickboxer put it down to a SEX PILL and was handed a two-year suspension.
After serving the ban, Miller did enrol in VADA testing which saw his licence in Las Vegas reinstated.
He won two comeback bouts before stopping Australian Lucas Browne, 44, in Dubai in March.
And he now faces 6-0 Zepeda, who has a 100 per cent knockout ratio and trains out of Mayweather’s Vegas gym.
Miller said: “He’s an undefeated guy he’s going to come in there and throw punches at me so it’s real.
“Don’t think we’re going in there to pitty pat, we’re going to have some fun at the same time.
“I know he has longevity in his career, I have longevity in my career so there’s respect there at the same time but we both know where our careers are going.
“I’ve gotta do what I’ve gotta do, he’s gotta do what he’s gotta do.”
