I will overwhelm 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout fight which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to promote next month's boxing match.
Former two-time world title holder Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth disparity - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I'm going to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's largest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would derail the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the customary confrontation, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
