I'll stamp all over 'serious fighter' Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.

Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.

Former two time world heavyweight champion Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Boxer's Mindset

"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.

"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."

Civil Exchange

In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - were respectful and remained civil with each other.

Paul rather targeted former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.

Taking Aim at Fury

Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua stated.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Fighter

Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.

Paul's History

Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.

He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's biggest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial earnings.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.

"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.

Physical Difference

As the two fighters participated in the customary stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how unlikely this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the match is actually proceeding.
