Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two time unified title holder Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive disparity - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
Despite these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest financial successes, regularly earning substantial paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for 2026.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul said.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it drove home just how unlikely this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
