I will stamp all over 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants met personally to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice unified title holder Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I will really want to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually known for his dramatics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and asserted he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.
"The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As both boxers participated in the usual face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly happening.
