🔗 Share this article I'll overwhelm 'credible boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be shown live on Netflix. Briton Anthony Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to publicize next month's boxing match. Former two time world title holder Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive mismatch - at Miami arena on December 19th. Boxer's Mentality "I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think. "I intend to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention." Respectful Exchange Despite these statements, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other. Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a match opportunity. Targeting Fury Joshua, at the same time, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win. "Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated. "I respect him for that." Legitimate Opponent Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills. "Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated. Jake Paul's History Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional. He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year. Financial Attraction Still, the novice remains one of the sport's largest money-making draws, regularly earning massive financial rewards. Prediction and Belief The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for 2026. "The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared. Size Disparity As the two fighters met for the customary confrontation, with their size difference on show, it highlighted just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is really going ahead.
