I will overwhelm 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.

British boxer Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the combatants confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.

Former two time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.

Boxer's Attitude

"I plan to damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul rather criticized ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK rival Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Fighter

Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.

"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.

Paul's Background

Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.

He lost to Briton Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

However, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive earnings.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.

"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.

Physical Disparity

As both boxers met for the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast evident, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly happening.
