Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's bout.
Ex twice unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after the Cameroonian declined a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Opponent
In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer remains one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the customary stare-down, with their size difference on show, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is actually proceeding.
