Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to publicize the upcoming bout.
Ex two time unified title holder Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Exchange
Despite those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather criticized ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the relative newcomer is still one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would prevent the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As the two fighters met for the usual face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly going ahead.
