The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants met personally to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two-time world boxing king Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Mindset
"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Exchange
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead attacked ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Still, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual face-off, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
