Anthony Joshua and challenger Jarrell Miller erupt New York in face-off

The animosity between heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and challenger Jarrell Miller took little time to erupt in New York as the American shoved the British boxing champion within seconds of the pair coming nose to nose on stage.

This all happened even before a word had even been said.

Thereafter, separated by security teams, there were verbal insults thrown in the news conference.

Joshua who last fought in September knocking out Russian Alexander Povetkin at Wembley in a defence of his WBO, WBA and IBF world heavyweight titles, puts the belts on the line at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan on June 1st this year against the unbeaten Miller who last beat journeyman Bogdan Dinu in November.
