I will dominate 'credible fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be shown live on the streaming platform.

Briton Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the two fighters came face-to-face to build hype for next month's bout.

Former twice world title holder Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.

Boxer's Mentality

"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35, said.

"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.

"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my goal."

Respectful Interaction

Despite these statements, a composed Joshua and social media star Paul - typically known for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.

Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.

Taking Aim at Fury

Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at UK opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer stated.

"I acknowledge that."

Serious Fighter

Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua declined to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.

Paul's History

Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive paydays.

Prediction and Belief

The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated 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 Joshua and Paul met for the traditional face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
