The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be shown live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's bout.
Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
Despite those words, a composed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK opponent Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice remains one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would derail the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers engaged in the usual face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really proceeding.
