I will dominate 'legitimate combatant' Jake Paul - Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix.
Briton Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former two time world heavyweight champion Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's venue on 19 December.
Boxer's Mindset
"I'm going to injure his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead targeted former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or faded names since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Attraction
However, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul met for the usual face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is truly going ahead.
