Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two time unified title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather criticized former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it drove home just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly going ahead.
