The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to promote the upcoming bout.
Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge mismatch - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I'm going to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Still, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, regularly earning massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As both boxers met for the customary confrontation, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly happening.
