I will overwhelm 'serious fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.

British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair met personally to promote next month's bout.

Ex two-time world heavyweight champion Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Boxer's Attitude

"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I intend to really want to injure him. That's my goal."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of these statements, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.

Paul instead criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.

Targeting Tyson Fury

Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.

"I acknowledge that."

Legitimate Opponent

In spite of saying he intends to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.

Paul's History

Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.

He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's biggest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial paydays.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old predicted a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently being planned for 2026.

"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.

Size Disparity

As both boxers engaged in the traditional confrontation, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really proceeding.
