I will overwhelm 'legitimate fighter' Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.

British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.

Former two time world title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Fighter's Attitude

"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I will seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal."

Respectful Interaction

Despite such comments, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically known for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul rather criticized ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK rival Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.

"Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Opponent

Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.

Jake Paul's Background

Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.

He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.

"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.

Physical Difference

As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how surprising this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is actually proceeding.
