Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round match which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the pair met personally to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," Joshua, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will really want to injure him. That's my intention."
Respectful Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's largest financial successes, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would derail the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is truly proceeding.
