🔗 Share this article I'll overwhelm 'serious combatant' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix. Briton Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the combatants met personally to build hype for next month's bout. Former two time world title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive disparity - at Miami's arena on 19 December. Fighter's Mentality "I will break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35, declared. "I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think. "I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do." Respectful Interaction Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his dramatics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other. Paul rather targeted former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a fight offer. Taking Aim at Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a victory for Paul. "[Paul] outshines Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented. "I acknowledge that." Legitimate Opponent Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked. Paul's Background Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing. He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year. Financial Success However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's largest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings. Prediction and Confidence The 28-year-old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for 2026. "The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated. Size Disparity As the two fighters engaged in the usual confrontation, with their size difference clearly visible, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is really going ahead.
