🔗 Share this article I will stamp all over 'credible combatant' Paul - Joshua The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform. British boxer Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to publicize next month's heavyweight fight. Ex two time world boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami's venue on 19 December. Boxer's Mentality "I plan to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think. "I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention." Respectful Exchange Despite those words, a composed Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally known for his theatrics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other. Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity. Targeting Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul victory. "Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated. "I respect him for that." Serious Opponent Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent. "Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked. Jake Paul's History Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since turning professional. He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023. Commercial Success Still, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial earnings. Prediction and Belief The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now. "It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared. Size Difference As the two fighters participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really happening.
