I'll dominate 'legitimate boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants met personally to promote next month's bout.
Former twice world title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically known for his dramatics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is better than Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Still, the novice remains one of the sport's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in rounds four or five and asserted he would stop the highly-expected Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As both boxers engaged in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast evident, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
