I'll stamp all over 'credible fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.

Briton Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.

Ex two time unified boxing king Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's arena on 19 December.

Fighter's Mindset

"I will damage his features and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm superior," 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 intention."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.

"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Fighter

In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.

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 turning professional.

He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

Nevertheless, the novice is still one of boxing's greatest financial successes, regularly earning substantial paydays.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.

"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.

Physical Difference

As both boxers met for the usual face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is actually proceeding.
