The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Exchange
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua said.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As both boxers participated in the traditional face-off, with their size difference evident, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly going ahead.
