🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be shown live on the streaming platform. British boxer Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight. Former two time world heavyweight champion Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th. Boxer's Attitude "I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, declared. "I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset. "I'm going to really want to cause him pain. That's my goal." Respectful Interaction In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other. Jake Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a bout proposal. Taking Aim at Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK rival Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul. "Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua said. "I acknowledge that." Serious Opponent In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent. "Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated. Paul's History Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or faded names since becoming pro. He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023. Financial Attraction Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge financial rewards. Forecast and Confidence The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now. "It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared. Size Difference As Joshua and Paul met for the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is truly happening.
