The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to really want to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK rival Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters met for the usual stare-down, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is actually happening.
