I will dominate 'credible boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the pair met personally to promote next month's bout.
Ex two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I'm going to injure his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally recognized for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter is still one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, regularly earning huge earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Difference
As the two fighters engaged in the traditional face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly happening.
