I'll overwhelm 'legitimate fighter' Paul - Joshua
The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the pair met personally to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex twice unified heavyweight champion Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Mindset
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
Despite these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually known for his dramatics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British rival Fury - and declined a ÂŁ1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's largest financial successes, regularly earning huge financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the long-awaited JoshuaâFury fight, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters met for the usual face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is actually proceeding.
