I'll overwhelm 'credible combatant' Jake Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be streamed in real-time on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming bout.
Ex twice world title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually known for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Paul instead attacked ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK rival Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's largest commercial attractions, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently in the works for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really happening.
