I will dominate 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly going ahead.
