The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be streamed in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
Despite such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - normally recognized for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Opponent
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, consistently making substantial paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in round four or five and asserted he would prevent the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently being planned for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters engaged in the customary confrontation, with their size difference on show, it drove home just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is truly happening.
