Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "break" the American as the two fighters met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former twice world heavyweight champion Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth disparity - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mindset
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather criticized ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really proceeding.
