The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to promote the upcoming bout.
Former two-time unified title holder Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of these statements, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Still, the novice continues to be one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old predicted a knockout win in round four or five and stated he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As both boxers met for the customary confrontation, with their size difference clearly visible, it drove home just how improbable this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really proceeding.
