I'll overwhelm 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two-time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on 19 December.
Boxer's Attitude
"I plan to damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of such comments, a composed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter is still one of boxing's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in round four or five and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As both boxers engaged in the usual face-off, with their height and weight contrast evident, it highlighted just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really happening.
