The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua said he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the two fighters met personally to publicize next month's bout.
Former two time world boxing king Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I'm going to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - typically recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead attacked ex Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized British opponent Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He lost to Briton Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter remains one of the sport's largest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast evident, it emphasized just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is truly going ahead.
