Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two time world boxing king Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I will damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I will seriously aim to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - normally famous for his dramatics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of the sport's biggest financial successes, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.
"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters met for the customary face-off, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is actually going ahead.
