I will dominate 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be shown live on Netflix.

Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the pair met personally to build hype for next month's bout.

Former twice world heavyweight champion Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami arena on 19 December.

Fighter's Mindset

"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."

Respectful Interaction

Despite such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.

Jake Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.

Taking Aim at Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.

"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Opponent

Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.

Jake Paul's History

Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive earnings.

Forecast and Belief

The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly in the works for two years from now.

"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.

Size Difference

As the two fighters participated in the customary face-off, with their size difference on show, it drove home just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is actually happening.
