Jarrell Miller will only rip up comeback plans to face Derek Chisora at the O2 as Joseph Parker’s replacement for a big offer

JARRELL MILLER will only rip his carefully considered comeback plans to face Derek Chisora for a mega-money offer.

Brit banger Chisora, 35, is desperate for a substitute fighter to clash with on October 26.

The Finchley slugger, nicknamed War, was scheduled to face former WBO champion Joseph Parker.

But the Las Vegas-based New Zealander has pulled out of the O2 fight due to illness caused, allegedly, by a spider bite.

Chisora needs a high-profile name to step in at late notice for the pay-per-view card and loud-mouth Brooklyn brawler 'Big Baby Miller is ideal.

The New Yorker should have boxed Anthony Joshua on June 1 and his spiteful insults made the build-up simmer.

But he was busted for a string of doping offences six weeks out from the fight and missed the chance Andy Ruiz Jr gobbled up.

The 31-year-old ex-MMA fighter copped a six-month ban has now been out of action since November 2018 but remains a big name.

So he has a comeback fight in mind for late November or early December, in a bid to win over his army of critics.

That means Miller will only listen to over-the-odds offers from Chisora and promoter Eddie Hearn to rush himself back into action ahead of schedule, against a resurgent Chisora, without a warm-up fight.
