I'll dominate 'legitimate boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.

Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize the upcoming bout.

Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Fighter's Mindset

"I plan to damage his features and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.

"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

Despite such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.

Targeting Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Opponent

Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.

"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.

Jake Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.

He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

However, the inexperienced fighter is still one of boxing's largest financial successes, regularly earning huge earnings.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in round four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.

"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.

Physical Disparity

As the two fighters met for the traditional confrontation, with their size difference evident, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually going ahead.
