I will stamp all over 'credible combatant' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua
Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex twice world title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries 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 bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Still, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers participated in the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is truly happening.
