Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex twice world heavyweight champion Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, regularly earning huge financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old forecast a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it highlighted just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the bout is really happening.
