The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will break his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
In spite of those words, a composed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Paul's History
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional confrontation, with their size difference on show, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is actually proceeding.
