I'll stamp all over 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.

British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" the American as the pair met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.

Former two time unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.

Boxer's Mentality

"I'm going to damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Paul rather criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.

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

"I give him credit for that."

Serious Opponent

In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent.

"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.

Jake Paul's History

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

He lost to Briton Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's biggest financial successes, regularly earning massive financial rewards.

Forecast and Belief

The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would derail the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly in the works for 2026.

"The next fight will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.

Size Disparity

As both boxers engaged in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it drove home just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really proceeding.
