Preparations for organizing this fight went on for several months. Miller, 34, returned to the pro ring last June after more than a three-year hiatus and defeated Ariel Bracamonte on points. A month later, a boxer from the United States won another victory.
In the fall, the "Big Child" was promised several fights at once, which in the end did not lead to anything. In his last professional performance, Brown quite unexpectedly knocked out New Zealander Junior Fa in the first round.
