I will stamp all over 'credible combatant' Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize next month's boxing match.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I will injure his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
Despite those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather criticized ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at UK opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or faded names since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, consistently making massive paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would stop the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers engaged in the traditional face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really happening.
