I'll stamp all over 'credible fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's bout.
Ex twice world title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will really want to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
Despite those words, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British rival Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's History
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mainly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Still, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's largest financial successes, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly in the works for 2026.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the customary confrontation, with their size difference on show, it highlighted just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is really proceeding.
