I'll dominate 'credible combatant' Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix.
Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "defeat" the American as the two fighters confronted each other to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Former two time world boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I will really want to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
Despite such comments, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically known for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather targeted former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Fury - and declined a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he stated.
Paul's Background
Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's largest financial successes, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in round four or five and asserted he would prevent the highly-expected Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the traditional confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it emphasized just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is actually proceeding.
