American heavyweight Jarrell Miller (23-0-1, 20 KOs), who was caught doping three times more than three years ago, again has a chance for big fights. The Nevada State Athletic Commission just cleared his ban and granted him a license that allows him to box across the country.

In April 2019, the discovery of endurobol in Miller's body was officially announced, and then it was reported that the American also passed a positive test for growth hormone and EPO. He was not allowed to the June championship fight with Anthony Joshua in New York. Miller was later replaced by Andy Ruiz and the Mexican won sensationally, and lost his belts in the December rematch. Despite these positive doping tests, the WBO suspended Miler for only six months. The American was supposed to return to the ring in July 2020, but an enduroball was again found in his possession.

Ultimately, Miller was suspended for two years, and it seemed that boxing fans would never see him in the ring again. However, Miller returned in 2022, defeating Ariel Bracamonte in June and Derek Cardenas a month later. After the aforementioned, Miller got his license, and his career in the USA can pick up again. In the meantime, Miller will hold his next fight on November 4 in Tanzania, where he will fight Awad Tamim (15-5, 10 KOs).
