Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the pair met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I will injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of those words, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather targeted former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua declined to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old forecast a knockout win in round four or five and stated he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul said.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the usual confrontation, with their size difference on show, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is truly proceeding.
