I will dominate 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be shown live on the streaming platform.

Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the combatants met personally to publicize the upcoming boxing match.

Former two-time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.

Boxer's Attitude

"I plan to break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.

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

"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's what I want to do."

Civil Exchange

In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.

Paul rather criticized former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a match opportunity.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British rival Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.

"[Paul] is better than Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.

"I respect him for that."

Legitimate Fighter

Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.

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

Paul's History

Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Nevertheless, the relative newcomer remains one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning massive financial rewards.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and asserted he would stop the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.

"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.

Size Difference

As both boxers participated in the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly happening.
