The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two-time unified title holder Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I will break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, at the same time, targeted British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Still, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's largest commercial attractions, consistently making massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As both boxers engaged in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is actually going ahead.
