Jarrell Miller faces Tony Yoka in Ghana on December 20

"

Today, ESPN has confirmed through Matchroom Boxing that they have a December 20 fight card planned for Accra, Ghana, where Jarrell Miller (28-1-2, 22 KOs) will take on Tony Yoka (15-3, 12 KOs) in the main event. Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn believes this will be a fun card to finish off 2026. What a way to end the year. This is a serious fight and one that will cap an incredible month of Heavyweight boxing,” promoter Eddie Hearn said. “With AJ versus Fury to look forward to the weekend before, alongside David Adeleye and Leo Atang both in action the following night in Monte-Carlo, we are closing the year in style with the heavy hitters — and the main event in Ghana will not disappoint” Miller, 38, has won two straight decisions this year, most recently outpointing Lenier Pero in late April. He’s never really regained the form that once had him on the brink of world title contention many years ago (and you can make your own inferences as to why that may be), but it hasn’t stopped him from trying to work his way back up. Meanwhile Yoka, 34, is on a five-fight win streak since dropping a decision to Carlos Takam back in early 2023. Miller will be a step up from his most recent competition, where Yoka last outpointed a fighter with a 10-20-1 record in a six-rounder just a few days ago in an effort to remain somewhat active.
