I will stamp all over 'serious fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" the American as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Ex twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I will damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to really want to hurt him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Still, the novice remains one of the sport's greatest financial successes, regularly earning huge financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a stoppage in rounds four or five and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly going ahead.
