Heavyweight Jarrell Big Baby Miller is outspoken, funny, big, fun to watch and carries dynamite in his fists. Hes just the kind of heavyweight who could excite the masses someday.Miller (17-0-1, 15 KOs) has been on a steady climb after dumping kickboxing for the sweet science and is slowly but surely making a name for himself among boxing fans.He has looked good in his three most recent bouts -- nationally televised knockouts of Nick Guivas, Donovan Dennis and Akhror Muralimov. They are not top contenders but they were reasonable opponents for Miller at this stage of his career and he dusted all of them.Miller will take another decent step up in opposition when he faces experienced gatekeeper Fred Kassi in a 10-round fight on Friday (Showtime, 10 p.m. ET/PT) in the main event of a ShoBox: The New Generation quadrupleheader at Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, New York.The 6-foot-4 Miller, 28, of Brooklyn, New York, is in a hurry to get to the top but has the durable Kassi (18-5-1, 10 KOs), 36, of New Orleans, standing in his way.Supposedly Fred Kassi is the most durable guy I have fought in my whole entire boxing career, Miller said. This is what they are saying and I tip my hat off to the guy. He has been in some fights where I thought he won and he ended up on the wrong side of the decision. When he fought other fighters, he had three weeks training camp, two weeks notice. He had two months to get ready for this. Im not a last-minute opponent. Hes going to come in ready and Im not about to underestimate him.I predict a fifth- [or] sixth-round knockout. I feel once he sees my size and my pressure and the speed that I bring with my footwork, its going to be game over for him. I know for a fact Im going to knock out Fred Kassi. Thats what I do, I take your heart, I take your soul, I take your ribs.Miller has taken some heat for his conditioning but said, humorously, that he changed things up for this training camp.Ive made some changes: less cheeseburgers, Miller said, despite weighing in at a career-high 296? pounds. I cut down from three cheeseburgers to one cheeseburger a day. Same thing, in the gym every day, not doing anything different. My main thing is my strength and my speed and we are going to see, come [Friday].Miller is calling out everybody of note in the heavyweight division. Hell need a couple of solid wins against known opponents before he is likely to get the big fights he wants but he said he is putting the division on notice.They better get motivated now because Im coming. Im hungry and Im motivated, Miller said. Showtime is having me on the main event on national television. Im telling you Im coming, and Im coming to stay. They better get ready.Im different to all the heavyweights out there. Im not chasing a payday. Im chasing a legacy. Im trying to change the layout. Im trying to change the game. Im trying to change my future and make history at the same time.Miller also had much to say about three of the divisions top names, world champion Tyson Fury as well as titleholders Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua, all of whom he said he wants to fight as soon as possible.On Fury: I like Tyson Fury. I still want to break his fingers in half but he is good for the sport of boxing and I feel like me and him for a main event will sell any arena out. He talks a lot of smack and he does back it up, but he is still a jokester and I am real. I will smash him if he tries to step on me in the press conference. I will knock him out, same way I will for everyone else.A fight between us two will be like Comedy Central on steroids. It would be bananas. It would sell out kind of like a [Floyd] Mayweather-[Manny] Pacquiao [fight]. I feel like we can capture the heavyweight division and put it back on the map, just because of the way he talks.On Wilder: Wilder is a wild man when he gets in that ring, but at the same time if you watch how he performs, he performs at a mediocre level against mediocre fighters. If you stick him to a world professional athlete, like myself or top guys, youll see him bring even more. Not saying he hasnt been in the ring with A-plus fighters yet, but you can see all his loopholes in his fighting style. Its just a matter of time before he gets really exposed and I hope it is with me because I want that behind.I want to fight Wilder. If he sees my style, if he sees my footwork, hell realize Im no Artur Szpilka or Chris Arreola. And when I get in there, well, most of my fights end up in knockouts. Im 100 percent power. Once I touch them, they are getting hurt.On Joshua: Joshua is overrated, overhyped. I am going to break that jaw of his. Definitely one of the weakest of the heavyweight champs. It comes down to the basics. You have a lot of guys that have a lot of punching power and basic skills and thats not enough. Joshua is a basic heavyweight, a one-two fighter.Id fight Joshua when the timing is right. I personally dont want to go and fight Joshua just because Im his next. I think that when the time is right, itll be me and him at the MGM Grand on pay-per-view. One of those super sweepstakes fights.Also on the card: lightweight prospect Mason Menard (31-1, 23 KOs) will face Bahodir Mamadjonov (19-2, 11 KOs), welterweight puncher Bakhtiyar Eyubov (10-0, 10 KOs) will face Karim Mayfield (19-3-1, 11 KOs) and bantamweight Antonio Nieves (16-0-1, 8 KOs) will face Alejandro Santiago (11-2-1, 3 KOs).

Dickey pitched scoreless ball into the sixth inning and Toronto stayed atop the AL wild-card chase with a 5-0 victory over the freefalling Los Angeles Angels on Friday night.Edwin Encarnacion added a late two-run homer for the Blue Jays (81-66), who stayed even with Baltimore for the leagues two wild cards. Both teams trail Boston by two games for the AL East lead with 15 to play.We look at it, of course, Dickey said. Thats part of a postseason run. Youre competing against teams in your division that are good. We know what we need to do to get where we want to get.Toronto has lost seven of 11 overall, but took the first two games of a weekend series with the Angels, who have lost five straight and nine of 10. The Blue Jays have won consecutive games for the first time in September.Hopefully, maybe this is the start of a little roll, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. It would be good timing if it was.Dickey (10-14) bolstered his case to keep a rotation spot by limiting the Angels to seven hits and striking out five. His first start since Sept. 5 began with a rough first inning before he settled in.Its not ideal to pitch once every 10 days, especially for a knuckleball pitcher, Dickey said. It was a little bit of a challenge to find the release point and the grip. Once I got that, it was easier.The Angels chased Dickey and loaded the bases with nobody out in the sixth, but failed to score against Joe Biagini when Kaleb Cowart flied out to end the inning. Cowart also struck out to end the eighth, stranding two more Angels.Roberto Osuna got four outs for his 33rd save.EDWINS EDGEEncarnacions homer in the ninth inning was his 40th, boosting his AL-leading RBI total to a career-high 118. Hee joined Jose Bautista and Carlos Delgado as the only Blue Jays with multiple 40-homer seasons.dddddddddddd.Its a nice number to reach, Encarnacion said. Im really happy to be part of that group. Those two guys are big horses.WEAVE DOWNJered Weaver (11-12) matched his career high for losses despite throwing six mostly sharp innings of seven-hit ball for Los Angeles, striking out four.My fastball command was really good all night, Weaver said. Its the best its been in a while. I was able to locate down and in all night. Just one stupid pitch, and thats the difference in the game.Tulowitzki connected in the fourth inning on that pitch from his fellow product of nearby Long Beach States prolific baseball program. The homer, Tulowitzkis second in September, was the 36th allowed by the slow-throwing Weaver this season, one shy of James Shields for most in the majors.ALBERTS 600THAlbert Pujols became the 16th player in big league history to get 600 career doubles with a drive into the left-field corner in the first inning. Pujols joined Barry Bonds and Hank Aaron as the only players with at least 575 homers and 600 doubles.FAN INJUREDA fan behind the Angels dugout was injured when Carlos Perezs bat went flying into the crowd as he swung and missed at a third strike in the second inning. Medical personnel spent several minutes attending to the fan, who was escorted from her seat with an injury on the right side of her head.TRAINERS ROOMBlue Jays: Josh Donaldson was the designated hitter for the second straight game as he returns deliberately from a hip injury. Darwin Barney played third.UP NEXTBlue Jays: Francisco Liriano (7-12, 5.16 ERA) limited Tampa Bay to three hits and two runs in his last start.Angels: Ricky Nolasco (5-14, 4.94) has just one win since joining Los Angeles, but it was a shutout at Angel Stadium. He has never beaten Toronto in four career starts. ' ' '
