I'll dominate 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be streamed in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the pair met personally to promote next month's boxing match.
Former two time unified heavyweight champion Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
Despite such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he said.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As both boxers engaged in the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how unlikely this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually happening.
