🔗 Share this article I'll stamp all over 'serious boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform. Briton Anthony Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight. Former two time unified boxing king Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's arena on December 19th. Boxer's Attitude "I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, stated. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do." Civil Exchange In spite of those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and maintained decorum with each other. Paul rather targeted former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal. Targeting Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul victory. "[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated. "I respect him for that." Legitimate Fighter In spite of saying he intends to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills. "Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he said. Paul's History Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro. He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year. Commercial Success Nevertheless, the novice remains one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, regularly earning huge paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for 2026. "It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul said. Physical Disparity As both boxers participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly proceeding.
