The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "defeat" the American as the combatants met personally to publicize next month's boxing match.
Former two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of these statements, a composed Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually known for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul rather criticized former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, at the same time, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the novice is still one of the sport's largest financial successes, consistently making massive paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the customary face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it highlighted just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really going ahead.
