• US fighter denied licence over ‘adverse finding’ in drug test
• Miller has right to reapply as Matchroom seeks replacement
Matchroom is pursuing a new opponent for Anthony Joshua’s IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight title defence on 1 June after Jarrell Miller was denied a licence over an “adverse finding” in a drug-testing sample.
Both camps confirmed the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (Vada) had informed them that Miller had returned the results from a test on 20 March. Miller retains the right to request a further sample and to reapply for a licence for the fight at Madison Square Garden.
