The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair met personally to build hype for the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will really want to injure him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK opponent Fury - and declined a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice remains one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, regularly earning massive paydays.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As both boxers met for the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really going ahead.
