I will dominate 'serious boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.

British boxer Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.

Former twice world boxing king Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge mismatch - at Miami venue on December 19th.

Fighter's Mindset

"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I will genuinely try to injure him. That's my goal."

Civil Interaction

Despite these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.

Paul instead criticized former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.

"I give him credit for that."

Serious Fighter

Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.

Jake Paul's Background

Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.

He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.

Commercial Attraction

However, the novice remains one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning huge earnings.

Prediction and Belief

The 28 year old predicted a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently in the works for 2026.

"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul said.

Size Difference

As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it drove home just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is really happening.
