Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge mismatch - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I will damage his features and hurt his body. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
Despite those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically known for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual stare-down, with their height and weight contrast evident, it highlighted just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly happening.
