Jarrell Miller’s toupee gets knocked off in victory over Kingsley Ibeh

Just when you think you’ve seen everything, heavyweight contender Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller created a new viral moment Saturday night during his split decision victory over Kingsley Ibeh at New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Miller had promised a knockout during the undercard bout but instead provided an unexpected highlight in Round 2 when Ibeh’s right uppercut knocked his hairpiece off. Fans were left astonished as Miller’s toupee flew off his head. Instead of trying to hide from the situation, Miller fully embraced it, removing the toupee at the start of Round 3 and tossing it into the audience, where WBO heavyweight champion Fabio Wardley caught it.

Miller revealed that he got a hairpiece two days prior after losing his hair due to a mishap with “ammonia bleach,” which he accidentally used instead of shampoo.

“I’m a comedian,” Miller stated in the post-fight interview. “You have to make fun of yourself.”
