Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead targeted ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Still, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's largest financial successes, regularly earning substantial paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As both boxers participated in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is actually proceeding.
