The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be shown live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for the upcoming bout.
Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I will seriously aim to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
Despite these statements, a composed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly in the works for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters met for the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
