Jarrell Miller has broken his silence after being arrested and charged with carjacking.
Miller was arrested on January 2 and charged for an alleged car robbery in Hollywood, Florida, but later released on bail, according to reports.
The American heavyweight, who was stopped by Daniel Dubois in the tenth round of their clash in Saudi Arabia last month, took to Instagram on Sunday to inform his over 300,000 followers of his hopes of a positive outcome.
“GOD is good. GOD is great!,” he wrote.
“First and foremost. THANK YOU SINCERELY to my family, team, friends and countless supporters from around the world who have relentlessly lifted me in prayer since this unfortunate ordeal began.

“GOD gives the toughest battles to HIS strongest soldiers.”
According to the website WSVN-7, the 35-year-old stole a Black Dodge Ram pick up truck from Haims Motors located along the 2800 block of North State Road 7, after a woman allegedly claimed she had left her mobile phone inside.
When the employee went to grab the keys, it is alleged that the person was grabbed from behind and put in a chokehold by Miller and slammed to the ground before he took the key and fled.
A tracker in the truck reportedly led police to arresting Miller nearby.
‘Big Baby’ was charged with carjacking without firearm or weapon and burglary with assault at a court hearing on Wednesday.
The state attorney alleged that the Brooklyn native “enlisted the assistance of another individual to create a ruse, to distract the employee.”
“Also, extending a VERY special thanks to my trailblazing attorney John Weekes who says,” Miller continued.

“I am prayerful and look forward to a favorable resolution of this case.
“PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!!”
