Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former two-time unified title holder Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to break his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would prevent the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As both boxers participated in the usual stare-down, with their size difference on show, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is really going ahead.
