I will overwhelm 'legitimate combatant' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round match which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice world title holder Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive disparity - at Miami's venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I will break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would stop the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the usual face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is truly happening.
