The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will seriously aim to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Still, the novice is still one of boxing's largest financial successes, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would prevent the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is truly proceeding.
