I will dominate 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for the upcoming bout.
Former twice unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British rival Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the novice is still one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, regularly earning substantial paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters met for the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is really happening.
