The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants met personally to publicize the upcoming bout.
Former two-time unified title holder Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will injure his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou 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 rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
However, the novice is still one of boxing's biggest financial successes, consistently making huge earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul met for the traditional face-off, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is really happening.
