"Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, 317-pound heavyweight Jarrell Miller got hit so hard his hair fell off. No, not figuratively. Miller's hairpiece was actually loosened up by the force of a straight left to the face he took from his 288-pound opponent, Kingsley Ibeh, with about a minute left in the second round. Then a quick and equally stout Ibeh right got his head rug flapping."
"Everything became very clear, and very comical, to all witnesses as the bell sounded. As Miller went back to his corner, super slo-mo replays revealed his hair had at one point actually almost flown all the way off from the power of an Ibeh punch. But rather than spend the minute resting on his stool and hoping whatever ailed his second-class coif would correct itself, Miller stood up during the break and faced the crowd."
At Madison Square Garden, 317-pound Jarrell Miller absorbed punches from 288-pound Kingsley Ibeh that loosened Miller's hairpiece. A straight left and a right caused the hairpiece to flap and partially peel away during infighting late in the second round. Confusion spread through the arena as spectators and the fight caller sought to understand the situation. Super slo-mo replays showed the hairpiece nearly flew off from the force of an Ibeh punch. During the break Miller stood, smiled, ripped off the semi-detached hairpiece and tossed it into the crowd, leaving a black oval outline from failed adhesive on his scalp.
