I'll stamp all over 'legitimate fighter' Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Ex twice unified boxing king Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I will injure his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I'm going to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
In spite of saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making huge financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a stoppage in round four or five and stated he would prevent the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul said.
Physical Difference
As both boxers participated in the usual confrontation, with their height and weight contrast evident, it emphasized just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly proceeding.
