I will stamp all over 'legitimate fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.

Briton Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.

Former two time unified heavyweight champion Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.

Boxer's Mindset

"I plan to break his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.

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

Civil Interaction

In spite of those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.

Jake Paul instead criticized ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a match opportunity.

Targeting Tyson Fury

Joshua, at the same time, criticized British opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.

"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Fighter

In spite of saying he intends to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.

Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.

He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

However, the novice continues to be one of boxing's largest commercial attractions, consistently making massive financial rewards.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.

"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul said.

Size Disparity

As both boxers participated in the customary confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly happening.
