EXCLUSIVE: Disgraced heavyweight boxer Jarrell Miller claims he failed his most recent drugs test because of a SEX PILL he took... and says he has the evidence to prove it!

Disgraced heavyweight boxer Jarrell Miller has claimed his most recent failed drugs test is down to a sexual performance pill he'd been using.
The undefeated American had been given another chance after serving a six-month suspension under the WBA for failing multiple drugs tests ahead of his world title showdown with Anthony Joshua last year, only for his comeback fight against Jerry Forrest in July to be cancelled due to another positive test for a banned substance.
It was Miller's fourth failed test in 12 months and several figureheads in boxing called for a lifetime ban to be issued after his license was temporarily suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC).
The substance in question was GW501516 - often used illegally to aid endurance and boost aerobic power - which Miller had also tested positive for along with EPO and Human Growth Hormone (HGH) ahead of his scheduled fight with Joshua in 2019.
Sportsmail has seen documents sent to Miller and his team from the Korva Scientific lab in Los Angeles - which was signed off by one of the world's leading anti-doping experts Paul Scott - and tests results have indicated the presence of GW501516 in the 'widely available' Black Ant male sexual stimulant he claims to have taken 30 or more days before that drug test.
Miller has always maintained that he has never willingly taken any kind of performance-enhancing drugs and is confident he will be able to prove that and regain his license from the NSAC at his hearing, which as of yet has not been allocated a concrete date.
He told Sportsmail that he has taken this Viagra-type pill on several occasions and had not made the connection the first time after testing positive for GW501516 in 2019. And after initially failing that first test, he claims to have asked for a second and third test which then subsequently found EPO and HGH in his system, which he says he was unaware at the time that it came from a stem cell shot he had taken for an elbow injury.
'Everybody wants to point the finger but not everybody has the right information,' he told Sportsmail. 'The levels I failed for in this case right now were so minute. And with the EPO, you need to use that for months at a time if you want to get any muscle benefits not just one shot. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not that person and we are going to prove everybody wrong. I have spent thousands of dollars of my own money trying to find out what's happened.
'But there's ignorance on a lot of people's part. Everybody listens to whoever has the loudest voice at the time and who has the microphone. When Eddie Hearn, or Andre Ward or Timothy Bradley are saying what they're saying everybody listens. But when I get the microphone back in my hand and get two or three wins back under my belt, I'm going to shut them up.
'The proof is in the pudding. It's right there. I've been truthful from the beginning to the end. The truth will set you free and I believe in that. If you go by the book and by the law, this case is innocent.'
Sportsmail has contacted the Nevada State Athletic Commission for comment.
UFC star Jon Jones made similar claims to ones Miller is making now back in 2016 when he tested positive for two banned substances. His defence was that he took a contaminated pill for erectile dysfunction but while USADA's investigation had concluded he was 'not a cheater of the sport', Jones was still hit with a one-year suspension.
- Jarrell Miller had his license suspended after testing positive for GW501516
- The heavyweight was due to make his comeback after three failed tests in 2019
- A LA lab has found a sex pill he claims he took indicates presence of GW501516
- Miller's fate will be decided by the NSAC in a hearing, which hasn't yet got a date
