I will stamp all over 'serious combatant' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be streamed live on Netflix.

British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.

Former two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on December 19th.

Fighter's Mindset

"I plan to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's my goal."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.

Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.

"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Opponent

Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.

Paul's Background

Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.

He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.

Commercial Attraction

However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, consistently making huge financial rewards.

Forecast and Belief

The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.

"It will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.

Physical Difference

As the two fighters engaged in the customary stare-down, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
