I'll overwhelm 'serious combatant' Paul - Joshua
Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the pair met personally to build hype for the upcoming boxing match.
Former two time world boxing king Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a composed Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and asserted he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As both boxers participated in the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity evident, it highlighted just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly happening.
