The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Former two-time world title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will really want to hurt him. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
Despite those words, a composed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK rival Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's greatest financial successes, consistently making substantial paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would derail the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters met for the customary stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the match is really going ahead.
