The British boxer prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming bout.
Former two-time unified boxing king Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I plan to damage his features and break his body up. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to really want to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather attacked former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
However, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's biggest financial successes, regularly earning massive earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the customary stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the match is really proceeding.
