Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, at the same time, took aim at UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of the sport's largest financial successes, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul met for the usual confrontation, with their size difference clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
