I will overwhelm 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round contest which will be streamed in real-time on Netflix.

British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.

Former two time unified boxing king Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th.

Boxer's Mentality

"I'm going to injure his face and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 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 what I want to do."

Respectful Exchange

Despite those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.

Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.

Targeting Tyson Fury

Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.

"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer said.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Fighter

In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.

"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.

Jake Paul's Background

Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

However, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.

Prediction and Belief

The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in round four or five and asserted he would stop the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly in the works for two years from now.

"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared.

Size Difference

As Joshua and Paul met for the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually happening.
