Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters met personally to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former two time world title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Boxer's Mentality
"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will really want to hurt him. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
In spite of these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead targeted former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Still, the novice is still one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
