Big Baby Miller arrested

Heavyweight contender Jerrell “Big Baby” Miller (26-1-1, 22 KOs) has been arrested on charges of 1) carjacking without firearm or weapon and 2) burglary with assault or battery after taking back a vehicle that had been repossessed from him by a South Florida automobile dealership. According to Channel 7 News in Miami, the 330lb Miller allegedly overpowered an employee to get the keys, then fled with the vehicle, a Dodge Ram. Unbeknownst to Big Baby, the dealer had access to the truck’s GPS tracking device and Miller was quickly located and arrested by authorities. As of 9PM, Miller is still listed as an inmate on the website of the Broward County Jail.

Miller, 35, suffered his first loss ten days ago when he was stopped by Daniel Dubois in the twelfth round on the huge “Day of Reckoning” PPV event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

  • If this proves to be true…. Jerrell Miller may just be one of the worst human beings that boxing has come across in a very long time.

      • Edwin Valero was a product of a motorcycle accident, his demons, and the protection of Chavez’s regime.

        • Sounds like an excuse. Its doesn’t matter what it was, he was the worst kind of guy there was. He stabbed his wife to death. His “demons” nor that motorcycle stabbed her he did.

          • It is scientifically/proven that hit/accident to the head can alter someone personality.
            I mentioned the Chavez’s regimen because they were numerous instances of domestic abuses and Edwin never faced any serious consequences. Tattooing Chavez’s face on his chest, being on name to name basis with the regimen, and attending his rally kept him out jail; Possibly gave Edwin a feeling of invincibility and zero consequences for his heinous actions

          • He lived in Japan for a short time, he Killed his wife in VNZLA not in JP, he was arrested in VNZLA not in JP, his kids (2) were and are in VNZLA, so I dont get your post????

      • Valero definitely has him ‘beat’, but you’d tack this on to a seemingly insatiable desire to cheat, over and over and over again and Miller may not have been at the absolute bottom, but he just picked up a shovel.

        • Lucie, between the continuous cheating, and the incident mentioned in the above article, I’d say this puts Miller in the realm of maybe Tank/Broner when it comes to doing dumb shyt. Not sure where he ranks overall among the worst human beings in the sport, but he’s trending in the wrong direction tonight, that’s for sure.

    • Boxing has been filled with murders and rapists. A guy stealing back his repossessed truck and taking steroids is far from “the worst human being blah blah blah”.

      You sound like a drama queen. Seek help.

      • You know you’ve really done well for yourself when someone says about you, ‘well at least he didn’t kill or rape anyone’.

      • In the mid 90’s there was a heavyweight from New York named Jo-ell Scott. He was like 16-0 16KO’s at one point. He was always getting arrested for something or rather until he finally got locked up for good for being a serial rapist of old ladies. I’d say he was a worse human than Miller.

        • Kris, forgot about Scott. I remember seeing him fight a few times back then. I believe Scott raped and murdered an older lady.

          • Yeah, Scott was all bad. I checked after I posted, and yes, he did rape and kill a 59 year old lady. Before that, he had a history of rape convictions and assaults. I never understood how a guy that screwed up could even make into the ring. Boxing is a sport that requires a lot of discipline, maturity and self control.

    • Let’s just start with one of the dumbest human beings that boxing has come across. Stealing a car with violent force that has GPS? Even among car thief standards, that’s freaking dumb.

      • Top it off with:
        1- The repo should have/known his info
        2- As a boxer, he is widely known to a degree.
        3- The dealer/financial institution who owns the car has his info
        It was just a matter of time before he was located and apprehended.
        I want to believe there is more to the story.
        having just earned a good payday, and this is how he thought to solve it?
        I wonder what he thought, it was going to happen after what he did? something like: the dealer, police, and court were going to laugh it off and say, oh, it is just big baby being a baby, it is all right, no problem here.

      • Ooof, both James Butler AND Verdejo are good call-outs, too. Just sad and pathetic all around.

  • Didn’t this man just convert to being Muslim ? He’s a dangerous man that’s needs to be locked up

    • Of course, it would be on a boxing forum where I should have expected a 75% approval of this comment. Just hard to tell if it’s bigotry or sarcasm. Probably the former…

  • I met Miller in NYC when I was there for the Canelo vs Fielding fight in December 2018. I told him I thought he could be the heavyweight champion some day. What a disappointment he has turned out to be.

  • Bullshit charge. Probably paid his bill then they came and repossessed it anyway. Its a Dodge Ram. Id just let them take it. Junk as far as I’m concerned. I only buy Toyota. I also own a 68 beetle. Hate the big trucks and the clowns that drive them. Unless you work construction. Tired of seeing women driving big trucks or idiots who cant drive in Las Vegas. Was rear ended at light by a big truck recently. The guy said he couldn’t see me because his truck was so high off the ground. Made me 900 bucks though. Dented my beater car that already has dents all over the place. Insurance paid out for the minimal damage.Lol

    • I figured my bigotbuddy would find this funny! Just another example of athletes not being the brightest. Or this guy…

  • Remind me of Crawford who years ago broke some equipments in a garage to get his car back, and after that no law breaking activities for Crawford.
    Miller is not my favorite in any stretch of the imagination, hopefully there is more to this, that at least will mitigate his actions.
    I do hope he learns and stay out of trouble.

  • Reminds me of how Jermaine Taylor last his marbels after Kelly pavlick dented him.

    • “Imagine having Big Baby as a cellmate!”
      – Good one.
      – Thanx for the chuckle…….

  • 1.Boxing doesn’t need Jarrell Miller
    2. Society doesn’t need Jarrell Miller as well

  • Do not sell the man out, not yet, until we hear or learn his side of this incident.

    • Yes, we need to hear from the sweet, innocent man himself. Hopefully, you are not involved in law enforcement and Miller will have an opportunity to have his say…..IN COURT.

    • Was also wondering about him defaulting on a vehicle shortly after what must have been a good payday. This isn’t a Bugatti, Bentley, or Rolls we’re talking about, it is a Dodge Ram. How did he wind up in this position to begin with?

  • This guy is just a terrible human being. Didn’t this man just convert to islam and made a huge announcement at “Day of Reckoning?” I hope “Abdul Wahid” doesn’t do the same. He made a huge annoucement on the same thing. All he needs to do is get in trouble with the law again at least we’ll understand why. He’s trying to avoid that Haney arse whipping.

  • Miller maybe the worst cheat or maybe he is just the worst at getting away with it. Sometimes I think a lot of top level fighters are using PEDs but I honestly do not know. As far as this recent incident , obviously he should not have did what he is alleged to have done but I know from experience the automotive world can get the best of someone. There maybe more to the story which will likely not justify his actions but may justify his anger. As far as his career goes…I think he fought well against Dubois. I think he may have broken him down but being much heavier and older caused him to run out of gas before he could. That is my take. I am likely in the minority but if Wilder decides to fight again I would not mind seeing him and Miller have a go on a Saudi undercard.

  • Not sure what Miller was thinking. I mean, all of us on this forum could pitch in and buy him a Dodge Ram.

  • Being a 6′-4″ 330 Lb boxer, Miller has probably gotten used to getting his way and doing what he wants. I’d imagine he’s relied on intimidation and bullying tactics and thought he could do the same here. This kind of reaction isn’t entirely unusual to getting your vehicle repo’d. Wasn’t there a reality show years back in the same vain as Cops and Cheaters where they showed guys repossessing cars? The owners would always freak out and shoot, stab, and assault the repossesor. Seldom were they calm and rational. It was never -“well, I guess I haven’t made a payment in 6 months, this is what I get”. It was always- “Hey, get the hell away from my car. I’m gonna call the cops and shoot your ass!”

  • Actually wish the best for Miller….life has challenges….I certainly have my own…and have had my own …too many maybe .Yet I am here to 52 years young…and I learned to do better and be a better individual….cause I had support and understanding….no one on this site ..can say that we didn’t make mistakes and have regrets….and you know what? That is ok….will not look down on someone …cause I never know when I will need someone to reach down with a supportive hand to lift me up again….called life…I may not agree with his antics…but I am..in Miller’s corner of a purposeful life…wishing you well young fella
