I'll stamp all over 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice world title holder Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Paul - usually known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British rival Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter is still one of boxing's greatest financial successes, consistently making massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in round four or five and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually happening.
