I'll dominate 'serious combatant' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former twice unified boxing king Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on 19 December.
Boxer's Attitude
"I plan to break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will really want to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a composed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually famous for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
However, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Difference
As the two fighters met for the usual face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how unlikely this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is really proceeding.
