I'll stamp all over 'serious combatant' 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 streamed live on the streaming platform.

British boxer Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's bout.

Former two time unified heavyweight champion Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Fighter's Attitude

"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35, declared.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my intention."

Civil Exchange

Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul victory.

"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Fighter

In spite of stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's pugilistic talent.

"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he stated.

Jake Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, consistently making substantial paydays.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.

"It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Paul said.

Physical Disparity

As both boxers engaged in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is truly happening.
