I'll overwhelm 'serious fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's bout.
Former two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Still, the novice remains one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As both boxers participated in the customary face-off, with their size difference on show, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
