Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the combatants met personally to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex twice world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather criticized former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, took aim at UK rival Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua said.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to speak negatively about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning substantial earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Difference
As both boxers met for the customary stare-down, with their physical disparity evident, it drove home just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really proceeding.
