Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for next month's bout.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to injure him. That's my intention."
Civil Exchange
In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically recognized for his dramatics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Still, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest financial successes, regularly earning huge paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the highly-expected Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
