I will dominate 'serious combatant' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.

British boxer Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight.

Former twice unified heavyweight champion Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge disparity - at Miami venue on December 19th.

Fighter's Mindset

"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.

Jake Paul instead attacked ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.

"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.

"I acknowledge that."

Legitimate Opponent

In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent.

"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked.

Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

Nevertheless, the novice remains one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making massive paydays.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.

"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.

Physical Difference

As the two fighters participated in the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly going ahead.
