Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the combatants met personally to promote next month's boxing match.
Former two time unified boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive disparity - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I will break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Exchange
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and called him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of the sport's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in round four or five and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As both boxers engaged in the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really proceeding.
