I will stamp all over 'serious boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a match opportunity.
Targeting 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 victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Still, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As both boxers engaged in the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly going ahead.
