World heavyweight champion Joshua fights Miller at Madison Square Garden on June 1, and the Brit was given a fiery welcome to the city as Brooklyn native 'Big Baby' Miller pushed Joshua and hurled foul language at him.
Before the press conference started, the Briton jumped off the stage and gesticulated at a heckler in the crowd, before being ushered back by his team.
After the early theatrics and lengthy introductions, Miller was the first to speak. After a lengthy speech about his upbringing, family and religion, AJ took the microphone - and his mask had truly slipped.
Joshua said: 'Unbelievable acting, I nearly had a tear in my eye, f***ing hell. Thank you so much for having me. Miller's a little b****, I'm going to knock him the f*** out, he punches like a fairy.'
Miller cut in and called Joshua an 'Uncle Tom', a racially charged term for black people who give up or hide their ethnic traits and practices in order to be accepted into the mainstream
