I'll stamp all over 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Ex twice world boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK opponent Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Still, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest financial successes, consistently making substantial paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in rounds four or five and claimed he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual stare-down, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is actually happening.
