I'll dominate 'credible combatant' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time unified boxing king Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather criticized former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As both boxers engaged in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly proceeding.
