I'll stamp all over 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the pair came face-to-face to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will really want to hurt him. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "ridiculous" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice remains one of boxing's largest financial successes, consistently making massive earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is truly proceeding.
