I will stamp all over 'credible boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former two-time unified boxing king Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive disparity - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally recognized for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK rival Fury - and rejected a ÂŁ1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
However, the novice is still one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly happening.
