I will stamp all over 'serious fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
However, the novice is still one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, consistently making huge paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would derail the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really proceeding.
