Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex twice world heavyweight champion Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I plan to damage his features and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a composed Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly fought MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would stop the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the usual stare-down, with their height and weight contrast evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really happening.
