🔗 Share this article I will stamp all over 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform. British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match. Ex two time unified boxing king Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's arena on December 19th. Boxer's Mentality "I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, stated. "I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my goal." Respectful Exchange Despite those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other. Paul rather criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity. Targeting Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul. "[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated. "I respect him for that." Serious Fighter Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked. Jake Paul's Background Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing. He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023. Financial Success Nevertheless, the novice is still one of the sport's largest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently in the works for two years from now. "It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared. Physical Disparity As both boxers participated in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the bout is actually happening.
