Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be shown live on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
Despite such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua declined to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning huge earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Difference
As both boxers met for the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly happening.
