🔗 Share this article I'll dominate 'legitimate combatant' Paul - Anthony Joshua The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix. British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight. Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami arena on December 19th. Boxer's Mentality "I plan to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, declared. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's my intention." Respectful Exchange Despite these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other. Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a match opportunity. Taking Aim at Fury Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win. "[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua commented. "I give him credit for that." Legitimate Opponent Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent. "Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he said. Jake Paul's Background Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing. He lost to British fighter Fury in last year. Financial Attraction Nevertheless, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's largest money-making draws, consistently making massive earnings. Prediction and Belief The 28 year old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for 2026. "It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Paul stated. Size Difference As both boxers participated in the usual face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really going ahead.
