The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" his opponent as the combatants met personally to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice unified boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather criticized ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary stare-down, with their size difference evident, it drove home just how unlikely this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is really happening.
