I will dominate 'credible boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.

British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming bout.

Ex two-time unified boxing king Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on December 19th.

Fighter's Mentality

"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.

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

Respectful Exchange

Despite these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.

Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.

Targeting Tyson Fury

Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul victory.

"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.

"I acknowledge that."

Legitimate Fighter

In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua declined to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.

Paul's History

Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since becoming pro.

He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.

Financial Success

Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving huge paydays.

Prediction and Belief

The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the highly-expected Joshua–Fury fight, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.

"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.

Size Difference

As both boxers engaged in the traditional confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
