I will dominate 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.

British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.

Ex twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.

Fighter's Mindset

"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I will really want to injure him. That's my goal."

Civil Interaction

In spite of those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.

Jake Paul rather criticized ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.

"I give him credit for that."

Serious Fighter

In spite of stating he plans to damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.

"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.

Jake Paul's History

Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Still, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.

Prediction and Belief

The 28 year old forecast a stoppage in round four or five and claimed he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.

"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.

Size Disparity

As Joshua and Paul engaged in the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really happening.
