I'll dominate 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex twice world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to injure him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers participated in the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is truly proceeding.
