I will overwhelm 'credible boxer' Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the pair confronted each other to promote next month's bout.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather criticized ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Opponent
Despite stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really going ahead.
