I'll stamp all over 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix.

Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to publicize the upcoming boxing match.

Ex two-time world title holder Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on December 19th.

Boxer's Mindset

"I will break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, said.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I will seriously aim to injure him. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

Despite these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.

Paul rather targeted former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.

"[Paul] outshines Fury - he showed up," the boxer said.

"I acknowledge that."

Serious Opponent

Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.

Jake Paul's History

Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.

He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

Still, the relative newcomer remains one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.

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

Size Disparity

As the two fighters participated in the traditional face-off, with their size difference clearly visible, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is actually going ahead.
