Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead criticized ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK rival Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for 2026.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers met for the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity evident, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the bout is actually going ahead.
