I'll overwhelm 'legitimate combatant' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "defeat" the American as the two fighters met personally to build hype for the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time world heavyweight champion Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
Despite those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his dramatics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly fought MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making massive paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually happening.
