I will stamp all over 'legitimate boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice world title holder Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to break his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to really want to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
Despite such comments, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually known for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather criticized former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning huge earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As the two fighters engaged in the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is actually proceeding.
