I'll stamp all over 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.
Former two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather targeted former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the novice remains one of the sport's largest financial successes, consistently making massive paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the traditional confrontation, with their size difference evident, it drove home just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really happening.
