I'll stamp all over 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the pair met personally to promote next month's bout.
Ex two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will break his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at UK rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's largest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly in the works for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the traditional face-off, with their size difference evident, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is truly happening.
