Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants met personally to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will really want to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - normally recognized for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in round four or five and asserted he would stop the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really going ahead.
