Shannon Miller next on Hasim Rahman’s comeback schedule
NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. — Former heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman will continue his comeback bid by fighting Shannon Miller next month.
The bout is set for June 19 at the Niagara Falls Conference Center, and will be formally announced at a press conference on Wednesday, promoter Nick Garone says. For the 37-year-old Rahman (46-7-2), this will be only his second fight since losing to Wladimir Klitschko in Germany in December 2008.
In his only fight since, Rahman scored a first-round technical knockout over Clinton Boldridge in March.
Miller (16-4-0) hasn’t fought since July, when a bout against Terrell Nelson was stopped in the third round following an accidental head butt and ruled a no contest. Miller has won only two of his past six fights.
