The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "break" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two time world boxing king Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually known for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he said.
Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of boxing's largest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually happening.
