I will overwhelm 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters met personally to build hype for the upcoming bout.
Former two time world boxing king Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually known for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a match opportunity.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
However, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's greatest financial successes, regularly earning huge paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a KO victory in rounds four or five and stated he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is really going ahead.
