I'll dominate 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be streamed live on Netflix.

British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to promote next month's bout.

Ex two-time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Boxer's Attitude

"I will break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.

"I'm going to genuinely try to injure him. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of those words, a composed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.

Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.

"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.

"I acknowledge that."

Serious Opponent

Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.

"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.

Paul's Background

Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's largest commercial attractions, consistently making huge paydays.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.

"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.

Size Difference

As the two fighters met for the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is really proceeding.
