Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted British rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Still, the novice is still one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, regularly earning substantial earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly in the works for 2026.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the traditional confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly proceeding.
