Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "defeat" the American as the combatants confronted each other to build hype for the upcoming bout.
Former two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35, 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 those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather criticized former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, consistently making substantial earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it drove home just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
