Just when you think you’ve seen it all, heavyweight contender Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller served up something new Saturday night with a viral moment during his split decision win over Kingsley Ibeh at New York’s Madison Square Garden.
Miller promised a knockout during Saturday’s undercard bout, but delivered a different kind of highlight in Round 2, when Ibeh’s right uppercut knocked the hairpiece from his head. Fans were stunned when Miller’s hat lifted off the top of his head. Rather than shy away from the moment, Miller embraced it, ripping off the toupee before the start of Round 3 and throwing it into the stands, where WBO heavyweight champion Fabio Wardley collected it.

Miller said she received a hairpiece after she lost her hair two days earlier when she said she accidentally used “ammonia bleach” instead of shampoo to wash her hair.
“I’m a comedian,” Miller said during the post-fight interview. “You’ve got to make fun of yourself.”
