Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to publicize the upcoming bout.
Former twice world heavyweight champion Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically known for his dramatics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's biggest financial successes, consistently making substantial earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for 2026.
"The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really happening.
