🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'serious combatant' Jake Paul - Joshua Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix. British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight. Former two-time world boxing king Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December. Boxer's Mentality "I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, declared. "I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I intend to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do." Respectful Exchange Despite these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally known for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other. Paul instead targeted former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal. Targeting Fury Joshua, at the same time, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul. "Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented. "I give him credit for that." Serious Fighter Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said. Jake Paul's History Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional. He lost to British fighter Fury in last year. Commercial Success Still, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning substantial paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated 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 next year," Paul said. Size Difference As both boxers met for the usual face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really happening.
