I will overwhelm 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.

British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.

Ex twice unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's arena on 19 December.

Fighter's Mentality

"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35, declared.

"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's my goal."

Civil Interaction

In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Paul rather targeted former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a fight offer.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British rival Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Fighter

In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua declined to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.

Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Still, the relative newcomer is still one of boxing's largest commercial attractions, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.

Forecast and Belief

The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in round four or five and stated he would stop the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.

"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.

Physical Disparity

As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is truly happening.
