I will stamp all over 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.
Ex two-time unified boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Boxer's Mentality
"I will break his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will really want to injure him. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a composed Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a match opportunity.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the novice remains one of the sport's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As both boxers participated in the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
