Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to publicize next month's bout.
Former two-time world title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive mismatch - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his dramatics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Still, the novice is still one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters engaged in the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really proceeding.
