I will overwhelm 'credible fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed live on Netflix.

British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to promote the upcoming boxing match.

Former twice world title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on 19 December.

Boxer's Mindset

"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.

Paul instead criticized former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Fighter

In spite of saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's pugilistic talent.

"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.

Jake Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.

He lost to Briton Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

Still, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial paydays.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.

"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.

Physical Disparity

As both boxers participated in the customary stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
