I'll overwhelm 'legitimate boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.
Ex two time unified title holder Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I will damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
Despite such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather criticized former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at UK opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As both boxers engaged in the usual confrontation, with their size difference on show, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly proceeding.
