🔗 Share this article I will overwhelm 'legitimate fighter' Paul - Joshua Anthony Joshua is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-round contest which will be streamed in real-time on Netflix. British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "defeat" the American as the two fighters met personally to publicize next month's boxing match. Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami Kaseya Center on December 19th. Boxer's Mindset "I'm going to damage his features and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset. "I'm going to seriously aim to hurt him. That's my intention." Respectful Exchange In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually known for his showmanship - were respectful and remained civil with each other. Paul rather criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity. Targeting Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory. "[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua stated. "I give him credit for that." Legitimate Fighter In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability. "Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he remarked. Paul's Background Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing. He was defeated by Briton Fury in 2023. Financial Success However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in round four or five and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently being planned for two years from now. "It's going to be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated. Physical Disparity As Joshua and Paul met for the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is really happening.
